    Was it irony or simply poor word choice?None of the above. It was dishonesty pure and simple. The Bush administration has been consistently anti-environmental but has tried to spin its positions as the opposite. Remember the Clean Skies and Healthy Forests Acts?

    Did we forgetthat this is the administration that has made torture a defacto practice of the US government? Did we forget that this government has "disappeared" people, snatched people off the streets so they can be sent to countries where they really know how to make you scream? Did we forget that this is the most authoritarian government we have seen since Nixon, and the most reactionary government we have seen since McKinley? So why should anyone be surprised at its behaviour in Bali or in the Senate blocking energy and climate action? Both are child's play to this government of criminals. 1-20-09.
