Obama sticks with Bush-era polar bear rule

Source: MSNBC

WASHINGTON - The Obama administration will retain a Bush-era rule for polar bears, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar announced Friday, in a move that angered activists who noted the rule limits what can be done to protect the species from global warming.

The administration had faced a weekend deadline to decide whether it should allow government agencies to cite the federal Endangered Species Act, which protects the bear, to impose limits on greenhouse gases from power plants, factories and automobiles even if the emissions occur thousands of miles from where the polar bear lives.

"We must do all we can to help the polar bear recover, recognizing that the greatest threat to the polar bear is the melting of Arctic sea ice caused by climate change," Salazar said in a statement. "However, the Endangered Species Act is not the proper mechanism for controlling our nation’s carbon emissions.

7. Okay....NOW I'm getting pissed. If the W.H. doesn't make changes in the environmental
   
and animal protection areas....

HEY, WHITE HOUSE: I WON'T BE VOTING FOR YOU IN 2012. If I'm gonna have a W.H. that doesn't protect endangered animals or the environment, I might as well have a government that cuts my taxes to the max and benefits me the most financially. And THAT'S the Republican Party.

So far, I'm voting against my personal interests. Why? FOR PROTECTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT AND ENDANGERED ANIMALS. If that goes away, so does the reason for my voting against self-interst.

28. I may never vote in another election.
   
After years and years of chiding friends and acquaintances for being completely apolitical, I may be joining their ranks in the near future.

If this last election and this president can't produce change, then things really are hopeless. We are ****ed! :banghead:

Is Skinner going to have to start working on TS's for the greenies and the PETA types? or does he have some left over after purging the GLBT's?

O Administration rightwing and capitalist?? :rotf:

You communist idiots really ought to take a visit to the old Soviet Gulags because no matter how much you "believe" that is where the government you wish for will put you.
They had no time to waste on perpetual malcontents or the useless.

They're still calling him "Obama."  I'm still waiting for them to show they're serious by refering to him in a less than admirable way.  Until then, faux-outrage.
