Our wildlife and the habitat they depend on deserve leaders who are good stewards of the land, not beholden to corporate interests. But President Bush, Vice President Cheney, and their anti-wildlife cronies such as Gale Norton and Dirk Kempthorne have made a mess – and a mockery – of our environmental regulations and wildlife protections.
Over the past seven years, the Bush/Cheney Administration has worked to:
Block meaningful efforts to address climate change now threatening polar bears, penguins and other wildlife.
Eliminate vital protections for endangered wolves in the Greater Yellowstone Area.
Roll back protections for millions of acres of roadless areas in our National Forests, paving the way for the destruction of habitat that wolves, grizzly bears and countless other species need to survive.
Expand destructive oil and gas drilling off our coasts and in sensitive areas such as the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, threatening polar bears, sea otters and other wildlife.
And that's only a partial list!
With less than a year to go, President Bush and his administration should take this opportunity to clean up the mess they have made by supporting comprehensive legislation to address climate change, immediately listing imperiled species such as polar bears and right whales under the Endangered Species Act, and protecting the Arctic National Wildlife and our roadless National Forests.
Send President Bush a farewell message and urge him to spend his last few months in office correcting the damage done by his administration.
We signed the “President Bush: Farewell, and Clean Up Your Mess!” petition!

Please fix the damage you have caused by not protecting the environment, it doesn't just affect your country, it's a chain reaction and affects the rest of the world too. Good riddance to bad rubbish I say! Glad you are leaving office.

Bush &co are incompetent people that have somehow found the LUCK to be in the positions they are in and what they have done with it is initiate the american " scam-train" to enslave the american people!!! We MUST DEMAND they do OUR bidding! They are laughing at us as they poison us, sell us garbage for 3 times the price, they are men that NEED men to feel like men. Cavemen that are thieves and incapable of love or intelligent enough to know women's value other than hordes of starving children while they smoke, drink and party and show off around the globe. Power hungry, greedy demise of this country and planet!!! Take OUR country back for ALL the people that have DIED for her and CONVICT the REAL criminals, Need I say more??

Where does it end? There is enough blood on your hands as it is Mr. Bush without continously adding to it. Why is it necessary to destroy our environment and wild life too, where is your conscience sir? It is time to do something honorable on your way out of office. It isn't too late yet to redeem yourself by considering alternative ways to help save the wildlife and other forms of life on this planet. You and yours are not the only ones here so hope you will think about the good of all in the long run. Remember your children and grandchildren will be affected by your decisions, money won't save them from destructive forces that you plan to unleash.
