How Bush Killed Off The Fish

And The Wildlife And, Well, The Rest Of The Country

We've seen what George W. B**h has been doing to the environment in his "midnight" rulings, but few people know that he's been raping the environment for years. The stories below show that B**h, Republicans, big business all benefited from deregulation of everything concerning flora and fauna in the U.S.

(AP) WASHINGTON –

A high-ranking Interior Department official tainted nearly every decision made on the protection of endangered species over five years, a new inspector general report finds, concluding she exerted improper political interference on many more rulings than previously thought.

Julie MacDonald, a former deputy assistant secretary overseeing the Fish and Wildlife Service, did pervasive harm to the department's morale and integrity and may have risked the well-being of species with her agenda, Interior Inspector General Earl Devaney said in his report out Monday.

Just what did MacDonald have to gain by harming fish and wildlife? Just what every loyal B**hite wanted: to advance the conservative agenda and to make money at it.

From Wikipedia:

MacDonald resigned on 1 May, 2007, one week before a House congressional oversight committee was to hold a hearing on the Inspector General's findings.

In November 2007, a followup report by the Inspector General found that MacDonald could have benefited financially from a decision to remove the Sacramento splittail fish from the federal endangered species list.

Detroit Free Press:

Although rarely front-page news, George Bush's eight years have been an ongoing exercise in gutting environmental protections.

And who benefits from all this gutting?

Raping the environment = B**h + Oil + Big Corporations
