Environmental policy is a big issue for me as well, and one of the reasons I have long supported John Kerry.
This administration is horribly short sighted when it comes to environmental issues. The Clean Air act is anything but and his Healthy Forrest Initiative has some good things in it, but he never asked for funding and now even more of Arizona and other western states is buring away.
The administrations "free-market" solution to mercury emmissions is assinine. I respect industries right to make a living, but not at the expense of the environment and my health.
