No slowing down for the Destroyer

Nobody but nobody should be surprised. George W. Bush is going to build up his resume as Destroyer-in-Chief till the day he steps down from the throne. (Well, not quite that long. By law, he has to finish his destroying by Dec. 20. But I'm sure he would be quite happy to use the rest of his time to shred records.)

The Unitary Lame Duck has dispatched his hatchet wielders to cause as much damage as possible. Some of the targets:

* Weaken the Clean Air Act
* Allow coal-fired power plants near national parks
* Diminish scientific review of projects that could harm endangered species
* Ease up on mining companies that want to dump their toxic waste into streams
* Open up millions of acres of federal land to oil and gas exploration
* Continue to downplay global warming
* Give the FBI new power to spy on Americans and infiltrate peaceful groups
* Allow the FBI to do racial and religious profiling

Hmmm. Some have said that Bush could not fall any lower in his approval ratings. Hah.

And apparently it will take at least months for the Obama administration to reverse this pathetic stuff.
