EPA's chief under Nixon rips Bush on environment
Says he will vote for Kerry

Russell Train is so disappointed in President Bush's environmental record that the staunch Republican, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's second leader 30 years ago, is casting his vote in November for Democrat John Kerry.

Train, 84, EPA administrator under Presidents Nixon and Ford from 1973 to 77, was in Madison Tuesday in support of Environment2004, an organization trying to end what it calls the anti-environmental agenda of the Bush administration.

1. Hey Carla, How Pubs does that make that have jumped ship. Bunches?

I didn't meet Kerry today he's busy, It's cool. I may have to go to him though. I really wanted to get a message to him to visit here, Oh well. I'll have 16 yrs. LOL

2. A few each day, it seems

Sorry you didn't meet him but I guess he does have a few things on his mind.



on edit; LOL 16 years...I get it!

3. I think *'s administration looks like the SM crash of 29 with all the jump

ing out going on.

4. That is something else I've noticed

the Wall Street gang is supposedly pro-* but there has been some negative chatter from that group. Pete Peterson, for one.

5. I posted this thread earlier...what do you think?

"How do you ask a man to be the last man to die in Vietnam – How do you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?"

This is, of course, from his 1971 comments to the Senate. It was spine-chilling then, and it is now. Knowing the SBV's have used it against him, it would be even more compelling to say it again, (exchanging Vietnam to Iraq).

I think it would make him look fearless and in total command. And as a bonus, * would have to answer the question!

7. OK, thanks for that but the point is
