A Bush policy working!

Yes, I am thrilled to say that the relaxation of air-quality controls has really kickstarted things. Much has been accomplished, but there is still so much more to be done. I mean, the latest data still indicates that SOME Americans are still not living in unsafe smog! (http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20040429/ap_on_re_us/smog_report_1)

How can that be?

Surely the "greatest nation on earth" can deliver this feature to all of it's residents can it not? All men being created equal and all that?

But the good news is that you're over half way there now. With a little extra effort and four more years of GW we have been assured that this number will climb closer to 70% over the next four years.

So please, remember to do your part. Buy an SUV, and remove the catalytic converter. And ensure that your local power company expands ALL of their coal burning plants under the new "emmissions? what emmissions?" rules.


It's your duty to ensure that no child is left without asthma!

My advice:

Stop sniffing up car fumes.

Now back to driving my SUV.

But seriously you do realize the air is cleaner than it was before? They even admit it in the article.

Well, the facts all seem to be laid out in the article. Perhaps it's something you'd rather not read...

Now back to driving my SUV.

Driving with a computer is one thing more dangerous than high smog levels - something you may wish to ponder sooner than later.

But seriously you do realize the air is cleaner than it was before? They even admit it in the article.

Before? Ooh, are we back to Industrial Revolution levels yet? :lol:

Industrial Revolution??? Is that when most of Europe was deforrested for fuel???

Oh, that policy... for a moment there. I actually thought he might have accomplished something positive!

Seems I missed that part of the article.

Not to say that the levels are acceptable by any stretch but they are improving. The situation did not come about over a 4 year span so why would anyone expect it to be corrected in a shorter time frame.

I will continue to drive my SUV and you can continue to wear a sealskin coat. Fix your own problems and let us handle ours.

Oops...sorry, I forgot... Liberal Socialists know what is best for everyone and don't have the time to solve problems since they spend it all pointing out those of everyone else.
