And you thought you were safe from the meandering, thoughtless actions of our 43rd President, now that we’ve proven that the USA is smart enough to see we need some change at the top and elected Obama to turn the country around?

Well, Bush didn’t get that message and it turns out he’s going to screw up a few more things before he walks out the Oval Office door. As the Denver Post points out, W. is working to pass anti-consumer, anti-environment “midnight regulations” before the clock rings Jan. 20th and he turns back into a pumpkin.

“Those and other regulations would help clear obstacles to some commercial ocean-fishing activities, ease controls on emissions of pollutants that contribute to global warming, relax drinking-water standards and lift a key restriction on mountaintop coal mining.”

I hear Bush likes to swim in polluted water for fun.

Bush likes to swim in polluted water for fun.

So, despite the fact you thought electing Obama was going to provide a breath of fresh air — or clean water — Bush is doing his best to prevent it.

It looks like Bush can see a little more darkness at the end of the tunnel and is working to bury his legacy even deeper in a quagmire of incompetence. Can January 20, 2009 get here soon enough?
