Back to Rick

Did the federal court get it wrong?  Wasn't it legally wrong for the Bush Admin to have tried to prevent the states from being more strict against mercury than are the feds?  Doesn't every Admin, Democratic too, make morally indefensible choices?  Credit where credit is due:  e.g., the Bush Admin's aid to African countries to help our sisters and brothers there deal with HIV/AIDS.  But discredit where discredit is due, Rick:  Protecting the interests of the economically powerful rather than protecting the public's health is indefensible.

I just re-read the NYT article.  Rick, we seem to be reading different articles.  MOJ readers, if you haven't read the article yet, do so now, here.
