Forget About Pardons -- Watch out for Bush's Midnight Regulations

Convenient that this video fails to give any detail on what these nefarious regulations would be. It's just a lot of hand-waving saying "Trust us...they are bad!" I did not see them interviewing anyone on the other side of these regulations, thus this piece calling itself "news" is laughable.

For example, simply having someone from the Natural Resource Defense Council simply state that something is going to undermine the Endangered Species Act is meaningless. You don't think this guy has a bias or agenda for his cause given the name of the organization he represents? What he calls undermining could be the return of common sense to the application of the Act, but without any details - something this left-wing Bush hit piece we are so used to by now - does not give us. Also, all these left-wing groups who are up in arms over Bush passing midnight regulations, I wonder if they had any issue with Clinton doing the same? The economist they interviewed did not that Dubya was able to undo only three percent of Clinton's regulations. I find that concerning. Bottom line, this is not news or anything to be alarmed about. Depending on who is in the White House and you outlook, it is simply business as usual in Washington.
