Heads Up
For over a week, EPA ran hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth of "clean air" spots on Cincinnati radio. Like other
parts of the country, the Cincinnati area was under a heat
and "smog" alert and the EPA was threatening draconian
new constraints on residents if they violated one of EPA's
arbitrary and capricious "attainment" guidelines.
The radio spots told local people to curtail such things as
driving, using lawn mowers, barbecuing, and a number of
other normal activities in order to keep the "smog" that is
always present on hot summer days down to the level EPA
demands.
No matter, though. President Bill Clinton had a fund raiser
scheduled in Cincinnati. Which means, Clinton came to town.
And, in so doing, he was directly responsible for hundreds
of unnecessary police and public official's cars to be on
the road. Worse yet, the Clinton procession tied up Friday
evening rush hour traffic for many thousands of home-bound
drivers while they waited for the Presidential motorcade to
make the 30 mile trip from the airport, through Cincinnati
and over to the fat cat fund raiser.
But that's not all. Being totally oblivious to the health
of the local residents, President Clinton used the largest
jet aircraft in his fleet, a 747, to come to the Cincinnati
area. And, according to EPA and others in the "Green"
cabal, a 747 arriving and departing from the average airport
produces as much smog as a car driven over 5,600 miles, and
as much polluting nitrogen oxides as a car driven nearly
26,500 miles. It also belches out a ton of soot.
Bill Clinton knew this and should have thought twice before
unnecessarily flying into an area under a heat and smog
alert. Obviously, though, campaign funds are much more
important to Bill Clinton than the health and lives of
the metropolitan Cincinnati residents.
There have been no reports yet as to exactly how many of
the area's asthmatic babies and children suffered due to
the nonchalant and careless antics of the President of the
United States. However, the next time health statistics are
reported, there is expected to be a spike for that week.
Also last week, Al Gore, the Vice President and reigning
chairman of the Green cabal who claims there is no
controlling legal authority over administration wrongdoers,
proved to America that the environmental laws, rules and
regulations only apply to us serf-citizens and never to
the controlling elite.
While the socialist clowns in Congress were busy defending
their mandate that all Americans use only "low-flow" toilets
-- another goofy idea by Al Gore, originally proposed to
conserve water -- Al Gore managed to use enough water for
a silly campaign photo-op to flush the equivalent of
two-and-a-half BILLION toilets.
It seems that Vice President Al Gore and Governor Jeanne
Shaheen paddled out on a section of the Connecticut River
for the photo opportunity. However, there wasn't a lot of
water in that river this summer. So, they had it "fixed."
To make it "picture perfect," they needed more water, so a
special discharge of nearly 4 billion gallons of water was
let out of a dam upstream to keep their canoe afloat.
"They won't release water for the fish when we ask them to,
but somehow they find themselves able to release it for a
politician," complained John Kassel, director of the Vermont
Department of Natural Resources, to The Washington Times.
Kassel accompanied Gore on the trip. "The only reason they
did this was to make sure the vice president's canoe didn't
get stuck."
That was far from the first time Gore put personal well-
being above the environment, though. During the 1996
presidential race, he had Denver officials release 96
million gallons of water, at a cost of $59,000, so he could
be photographed against a roaring South Platte River.
The Gore team "had to know the river levels were being
raised, just like they had to know he was going to a
Buddhist temple for a fund-raiser," Republican National
Chairman Jim Nicholson, said.
In a stop down the road, Gore announced that $819,000 from
various federal sources will be spent to enhance the
Connecticut River's environmental and economic resources.
"We have to make the 21st century the time when we finally
right the environmental wrongs of our past," Gore told a
small group of less than 200 who gathered in one of Hammond
Farm's fresh-cut hay fields along the Connecticut in
Cornish.
No word, yet, on exactly how much Gore's latest photo-op
splash cost taxpayers.
Truly, Gore is correct: There is "no controlling legal
authority" for this administration. We are to do as we
are told. They do as they wish. That's how far the "rule
of law" has deviated off course in these United States.
