well...bush want's to cut a whole lotta trees down to 'prevent' forest fires...the problem however seems to be that he wants to chop big trees down not clear the small dense undergrowth stuff that's really the problem ...because you see...the small stuff ain't worth much $...that's why it hasn't been cut before...so clear cut away....
...and i'm curious how bush can take credit for the salmon run this year when most of the upper columbia fish are 4+ year olds? was he in office in '99?
..he aslo wants to increase the use of hanford for dumping nuke waste and has dramatically cut funding to clean it and other superfund sites up....
