This is just great... Please read this. The article explains how the management of the National Parks used to be a neutral area and was outside the realm of partisan politics. Not under Bush's America. George W. Bush is beneath contempt. Bush is destroying our most sacred sanctuaries. Read your Bible Bush! We are supposed to be "stewards of the land"! Let me spell that out for you Bush, that means "we are supposed to take care of the earth". I can not tell you how angry this makes me.

In dozens of national parks and seashore areas, the use of jet skis, ORVs, dirt bikes and other mechanized vehicles would be permitted on a virtually unrestricted basis. At Gettysburg National Military Park the rules would permit the rebuilding of an obtrusive observation tower that recently was removed with broad public support. At Great Smoky Mountain National Park and dozens of other parks, the rules would permit huge increases in the number of noisy overflights that destroy the natural peace and quiet. Britney Spears could hold a major concert at Shiloh National Military Park or nearly any national park since the new rules significantly increase the emphasis on permitting public uses over the traditional mission of preserving historic and natural places. At Shenandoah National Park, polluters would get a seat at the table to decide how much they should be allowed to impair the air quality and views at the park. Rather than working with park visitors to minimize the problems posed by improper food storage and other temptations, rangers would be forced to kill bears at Yellowstone if they damaged private property.
