...Liberals have long spoken with contempt of Limbaugh's woofing and hooting, his mockeries of Bill and Hillary Clinton and nearly every other Democrat and environmentalist and bleeding heart to the left of George S. Patton. It must be said that Limbaugh, with three radio hours at his disposal five days a week, sometimes follows up the tomato attacks with what is often fairly sharp analysis of the issues. You may think he is wrong, but he's often more logical than liberals generally think...
...lazy Mekong, surrounded by low mountains. The tour groups vanish: variances in Western and Chinese tastes work to segregate the city. Domestic tourists stay across the river in glitzy, Vegas-style hotels offering all-day shows of tribal dancing and wild animal routines that would outrage even the mildest environmentalist.

Environmental issues - even now under heavy damage control - don't get the same kind of full-throttle treatment. At one point when the White House Climate Change Working Group had supposedly already been meeting for weeks, one key administration official...
...environmentalists had a cool response to Bush?s comments. "This is a big photo opportunity. It's designed to make Bush look like an environmentalist, when all he's shown is a propensity to harm America's wetlands," Jonathan Ullman, spokesman for the Sierra Club of South Florida told the Associated Press. And while the Bush White House is not likely to care much about the likes of Ullman, staffers are concerned that months of bad press from environmentalists could scar the President?s image in the public at large...
