I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands: one Nation, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all.
Dave Neiwert reports on the Bush Administration's stonewalling the effort to place, well, nearly anything, but in this case the Puget Sound Orca pods on the Endangered Species List. The Miserable Failure's excuse is that not listing species or critical habitats will cause short-term losses. Not suprising, considering our Unelectable President's inability to consider consequences past the next election. The whole point, as Dave points out, is that we'll take the short term loss so that we can have the long-term gain of maintaning biodiversity. I'm suprized that this one hasn't made it onto the Scorecard of Evil yet.
