Salon.com News | A green revolt against Bush: "'I think what you'll see is nearly every Mid-Atlantic and New England state agreeing to join in a regional [carbon dioxide] cap and trade regime,' Bradley Campbell, commissioner of New Jersey's Department of Environmental Protection, told Salon. Campbell said that Republican governors are expected to sign on to the plan despite backroom coercion by the White House. 'Several of my counterparts in Republican-led states have reported active efforts by the Bush administration to pressure them to not participate in a regional program to implement greenhouse gas reductions,' he said."


Streak loves the fact that the Bush admin opposes environmental movements, even when led by the states he supposedly thinks should make such decisions. They did this in California where they sued the state to oppose zero emission vehicles. Streak suspects that this administration lacks a cohesive ideology, or they would support state decisions even when they conflicted with Republican dogma. Dogma. That is a funny word. Especially coming from a dog.
