Here's another way he's going to figuratively burn the entire country to the ground and sow every acre with salt before he escapes to Paraguay:
The Bush administration is considering doing away with health standards that cut lead from gasoline, widely regarded as one of the nation's biggest clean-air accomplishments.
Battery makers, lead smelters, refiners all have lobbied the administration to do away with the Clean Air Act limits.
A preliminary staff review released by the Environmental Protection Agency this week acknowledged the possibility of dropping the health standards for lead air pollution. The agency says revoking those standards might be justified "given the significantly changed circumstances since lead was listed in 1976" as an air pollutant.
The EPA says concentrations of lead in the air have dropped more than 90 percent in the past 2 1/2 decades.
Fucking idiots. The REASON concentrations of lead in the air have dropped is BECAUSE of the regulation of lead emissions. You can't sell your HOUSE if there's lead paint detected, and now they want to put lead back in gasoline to please Georgie's friends in the oil industry? And this is just the beginning. He will pull stunts like this again and again over the next two years, using executive orders if necessary. He's made it clear that the only way to stop him is to kick him out.
