The Bush administration on Monday said it plans to let federal agencies decide for themselves whether highways, dams, mines and other construction projects might harm endangered animals and plants.
The proposal, which does not require the approval of Congress, would reduce the mandatory, independent reviews that government scientists have been performing for 35 years. Developers welcomed the plan, while environmentalists derided it.
I'm far from an environmentalist, but to take away the scientist's role in determining whether or not a project might harm the environment is idiocy at BEST.
Incompetence, or just a lack of a basic function of your brain at worst. When I don't understand something, I ask an expert in the field that I'm trying to find an answer for. I don't ask the guy who's answer may or may not make a buck for him.
Maybe the pretzel Bush choked on a while back destroyed that part of his brain.
Dumbass.
