TU has never seen a resource development project they don't like! The recent plead for money campaign states that 40% of all waterways in America don't hold fish. 40%! Do you believe these numbers? It's sensationalism at it's finest. If people would learn to actually study the facts and quit relying on op-ed pieces from TU or any other source, we might stand a better chance at really understanding the issues. Bush hasn't been the best from an environmental standpoint, but he hasn't been the worst. To the original poster. Do your homework on this issue. I've personally never seen so many waterways in the west in such fine shape. Oh wait. The drought has caused problems with many rivers, but that isn't a result of any current policies implemented by Bush. We should be excited, as a nation, that the riverways continue to improve every year. |

Bush hasn't been the best from an environmental standpoint, but he hasn't been the worst. Bush is NOT a friend of our fisheries. To the original poster. Do your homework on this issue. I think you're the one that needs to research Bush's and his Secretary of the Interior, Gale Norton's record on environment protection as a whole (ie look at their attempts to repeal and weaken the Clean Water Act and the Clean Air Act) as well as their free market approach to OUR National lands (ie the ONLY value our National lands have are the money that they can generate).

Last I checked, it isn't in the job description, and the same document provides for no right(s) as to folks being able to fish on public waters. The fact that it is available is much like a driver's license, a hunting license, etc. - a privilege. TC, R |
