Bush’s last rule-making hurrah

He's at it again folks and it dont look good!

With just 60 days left in his tenure, you might think that W.'s lame-duck administration was sitting around relieved that another guy was taking over, and Bush was counting the minutes until his flight leaves for Crawford. Not quite. Based on the flurry of quiet directives coming from the White House as the end of the term nears, it looks like the Bush goose (or is it turducken?) isn't quite cooked yet. In what has become a kind of presidential right-of-passage, the president (or really, the federal agencies that answer to him) has been pushing through a series of last-minute regulations that have the force of law. Everything from pollution controls to family-leave standards can be set by these rules. And you thought your high school government teacher said that Congress made all the laws. These de-facto laws are called "midnight rules" or "midnight regulations" because they happen at the end -- or midnight period -- of an administration. If the rules are published in the Federal Register by Friday, Nov. 21, they'll be very hard for President-elect Obama to reverse when he gets into office.

ProPublica Midnight Regulations


it's just not a prity site when most of the last minute items he's pushing are anti eco like this ......

1)EPA Won’t Regulate a Contaminant in Drinking Water
2)Uranium Mining Permits Near Grand Canyon Could Increase
3)Public Lands May Be Leased for the Development of Oil Shale


those and others ........... what a mess.....

Obama is a Constitutional Law expert ,that's his 'thing' the Obama team is ,even as we speak getting the ducks in a row to 'undo' all this shenagins

Dubbaya apparently shot himself in the foot over this one ,either their was a closet patriot in his administration ..OR they really are this dumb ,he was supposed to sign all these things between May15 and Nov 15 ,he thought it was supposed to be after Nov 15 ,so now all his stuff comes up for review and congress can slap it down

so he's going to sign all this stuff and get pwned,and mums the word but there is a 50 50 chance he could be even more screwed than this ,fingers crossed
