156 more days

How many ways can our President screw up our country? Try two more before he goes. We have them trying to make changes to the definition of birth control. Wouldn't you like to have it considered abortion if you took a pill to prevent contraception? Is our country being run by the Taliban? Can you tell who's the extremist in this country?

And here's another bright idea out of Washington. I first read about this in the August 25th edition of Time Magazine. On Aug 11th, the White House proposed an overhaul of the rules for the Endangered Species Act. It would allow for the evaluation of whether an action harms an endangered species to be made NOT by trained biologists but by bureaucrats. The new rules could go into effect in as few as 90 days and won't need approval from Congress. Here's a link to a sight that gives further information and tells where to go to express your views:

It'll be fast - Bush needs to get it done before he leaves (156 days) to protect his big oil buddies as they prepare to drill in ANWAR. The NPO's haven't even started to raise hell yet so it's important to have our voices heard.

Love you - thanks for caring
