Lance Knobel There was a popular myth current in certain circles last autumn: it didn't make a difference whether George W Bush or Al Gore became president, since both of them were centrist politicians with few important differences. The barrenness of this logic is being exposed on an almost daily basis.
This is a list of the rush to the right, with links, that is happening under george w. bush. This includes an interesting case where a USGS cartographer lost his job for putting up information of Caribou migration in the Arctic Wildlife Refuge. The Interior Dept. is removing information that might get in the way of oil exploration. Kiss the Artic Wildlife Refuge goodbye.
Thank you very much Ralph Nader.
