Bush`s Last 100 Days the Ones to Watch
mathaba.net by Jesse Jackson 6 Nov 08
(Chicago Sun Times) The Washington Post reports that the White House is “working to enact an array of federal regulations, many of which would weaken rules aimed at protecting consumers and the environment, before President Bush leaves office in January.”………………………..About 90 new rules are in the works,………………………..Many will make changes that the new administration will find it hard to reverse for years to come. More emissions from power plants; more exemptions from environmental-impact statements; permission to operate natural gas lines at higher levels of pressure — the changes could be the last calamities visited upon us by the Bush administration.
Congress — the old one, not the new one just elected — comes back into special session right after the election

. Representatives Henry Waxman and John Conyers would be well advised to convene special hearings to try to curb what Bush has cooked up for his last 100 days. Let’s not let the new dawn that is possible be dimmed by clouds left over from an old era that has failed.
