Fuck Clinton; he's not a good reason to vote for Bush. I have friends who voted Bush simply because they hated Clinton so much they couldn't vote for a man who had stood by him and not turned his back (Gore). You've sold your kids and their future because you couldn't research and THINK about what really matters. I hope you're fucking happy. Next time, read up on the candidates environmental records and reflect that you CAN'T LIVE without the air you breath or the water you drink.
So just why am I so hot and bothered? Because I'm a fucking eco-terrorist tree-hugger environmentalist wacko. Bullshit; I just want to have a high standard of living when I'm old. Bush is gunning for my future, trying to kill any chance we have of having anything other than ragtag groups huddled around fires built of derelict houses de-occupied in the massive die-off that's looming.
Bad enough that Bush is asking for control over the endangered species list.
Do you know Bush wants to cut the energy conservation budget by over twenty million? He's an oil guy, the more oil we use the more he makes. Never mind that we are FUCKING RUNNING OUT OF OIL. What are you going to do when the liquid your society is BUILT on is gone or yields are low and it's expensive? Can you think of ANY facet of your life that isn't dependant on oil? WHY don't we try and cut our usage and extend the amount of time we have oil to use while we search for the next source of energy?
Not only that, but Bush wants to cut funding for research into renewable energy by 26 percent. That's NINETY SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS. You ever hear the phrase an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure? We have over 260 million people in the US and EVERY kilowatt we save makes a difference. But Bush doesn't see it that way; he's only thinking of himself and his buddies.
On to clean air, which I'm going to use to encompase clean air, water, soil, etc. Bush actually increases the Environmental Protection Agency's budget by 14 million. But enforcement is shifted from the EPA to the states, which get 25 million spread between all fifty states. That's $500,000 for each state, which is what, seven or eight workers if the operating exepenses aren't included. LUDICROUS!
Bush has more than a casual disregaurd for the environment; this is a professional one. He wants to ignore evidence of environmental damage and the growing proof of global warming; in his mind nothing is as important as the US economy today and tomorrow. Who cares a FUCK about today's economy if only a couple ragtag groups are around twenty years from now to remember it? Do you really think you are immune from weather pattern shifts? What happens when the jetstream takes on a new pattern? Will the midwest become a desert? Could the Sacramento valley turn into a flood plain? We don't know, and Bush seems hell-bent to find out.
The solution is NOT more production; it is far more economical to conserve and not use as much. But conservation doesn't earn him or his buddies money, so he's against it. I got an opinion of my own Bush, and I'm expressing it to you right here:
