Grandpa,

Fishing good --> Bush good?

By that logic, during the mid 90's you must have been saying: Economy good --> Clinton good.

I'm not bashing Bush, but giving his administration credit for increased salmon runs is a big stretch. Most of the fish returning we poking their head out of the gravel before Bush put any policies in place.

Again, I'm not saying he is bad for fish (although I don't believe the environment is a priority of his) I'm just trying to point out a bit of hypocrisy. Giving credit when it may not be due is just as bad as assigning blame when it may not be due. In this case, I believe the jury is still out and we won’t really know the affect for another 3-5 years.
