Posted by Josh Rosenau on February 24, 2008 It’s two days short of the 5th anniversary of this question:
can anyone? give me one single example of something with the following three characteristics:
1. It is a policy initiative of the current Bush administration
2. It was significant enough in scale that I’d have heard of it (at a pinch, that I should have heard of it)
3. It wasn’t in some important way completely fucked up during the execution.
I still haven’t got an answer.
How about: stock the courts with right-wing judges who are going to be there for decades, plant as many oil derricks as possible all over the western US, and do everything possible to bugger up any rational and effective response to global climate change?
Or did you mean GOOD policy initiatives?
