Wetlands, Schmetlands!

I heard the funniest / scariest thing on CNN the other morning.

The newscaster was discussing President Bush, and how his Secretary of the Interior had resigned. Just prior to her resignation she declared that the United States has more wetlands now than we did in 1997! Good news right? Well that’s what I thought.

As it turns out the Bush Administration is counting water hazards on golf courses and swimming pools as wetlands.

Swimming pools and water hazards!!

I am so disgusted I can barely type.
