WASHINGTON (AP) — Just six weeks before President-elect Barack Obama takes office, the Bush administration issued revised endangered species regulations Thursday to reduce the input of federal scientists and to block the law from being used to fight global warming.
The changes, which will go into effect in about 30 days, were completed in just four months. But they could take Obama much longer to reverse.
President Bush is rapidly attempting to screw up everything he didn't have time to get to throughout the last eight years. This time, he's obviously doing a 'once around' on his favorite issue area: killing living creatures by violently ignoring scientists.
