Why is the EPA spending money for Bush's campaign?
The EPA has funded Spanish language ads in Dallas to highlight President Bush's Clear Skies Act.

Here it is:

REPUKES Say it is not promoting, but it is obvious once you read hte article.

2. But EPA's general counsel said it was fine-- before he resigned, I guess
From the WP article:

(EPA spokeswoman Lisa) Harrison said EPA officials, including the general counsel, believe the public service announcements are appropriate because "they inform public opinion on Clear Skies legislation," but that "they do not expressly request members of the public to contact Congress in support of Clear Skies."

ahem....

<snip>
Robert E. Fabricant, General Counsel of the U.S.Environmental Protection Agency, submitted his resignation to the President. Fabricant's resignation becomes effective on September 3 (2003).

Mr. Fabricant has served as the Bush Administration's top environmental lawyer for the past two years providing legal advice and counsel to former EPA Administrator Christine Todd Whitman.
