Here's an interesting link. It's keeping track of some of the more controversial regulations the administration is trying to finalize before January 20, 2009:

Watching out for Midnight Regulations - Environment - RegWatch - OMB Watch (http://www.ombwatch.org/article/blogs/entry/5494 - broken link)

Personally, I'd like to see the non-controversial ones, too. Give us a good look at what Bush's priorities are when the country is going to hell.

Bush sneaks through host of laws to undermine Obama | World news | The Observer

Bush's midnight regulations will:
• Make it easier for coal companies to dump waste from strip-mining into valleys and streams.
• Ease the building of coal-fired power stations nearer to national parks.
• Allow people to carry loaded and concealed weapons in national parks.
• Open up millions of acres to mining for oil shale.
• Allow healthcare workers to opt out of giving treatment for religious or moral reasons, thus weakening abortion rights.
• Hurt road safety by allowing truck drivers to stay at the wheel for 11 consecutive hours.

I'm still furious that he gutted the War Crimes Act a few years ago so he and his minions won't be brought up on charges.

Just a continuation of BushCo.'s War on America.

What some don't realize is that not ALL terrorist attacks are in the form of bombs or planes....there's much more insidious, nasty, but just as destructive actions ...and bushCo used them all.

The national parks gun rules change was not last minute, it's been worked on for nearly a year officially, unofficially, it was being worked at longer than that (with the senators urging the change, etc.).

That doesn't make his attack any less damaging.

Bush never loved America except for the dollars he could squeeze out of it.

That should have been apparent to even the most casual bystander when one of the first things out of his mouth when told about 9/11 was, "We hit the trifecta!".

Bush is a two-bit war profiteer and should be treated with all the respect deserving of that position.
