Well, they are at it again. Of course, now is the the time, nearing the end of a president’s term, when favors and special dispensations are distributed around for those friendly to the administration. Not that & Co. didn’t pretty much do as they pleased earlier, but I guess they have the wafer-thin advantage that comes with being at the lame-duck stage, enabling them to do just a wee bit more environmental damage before they leave the White House. I’m talking about mountaintop , the destruction of mountain tops, valleys and streams in order to mine coal deposits, and a move by the administration that tries to make it just a bit easier by relaxing environmental protections.
