The Bush administration has been dragging it's feet to pass the legislation declaring polar bears and endangered species. World Wildlife and other animal advocates have been trying to get this done for the past 3 years! The Bush administration plans, and leases for drilling are still pending. They say that is not why polar bears have not yet been declared an endangered species, they say oil drilling up in the midst of their territory has had no know adverse effects on polar bears.

Obama voted for Bush's 2005 energy bill that contained $6 billion in oil and gas subsidies. In 2005, Obama voted twice for Bush's Energy Bill, HR 6. It contained $6 billion in oil and gas subsidies.

Hillary voted against the bill. [HR 6, Votes #212 and #213, 7/29/05; Public Citizen, 8/2005]Public Citizen:Reflecting the fact that energy companies helped write this legislation, the energy bill lavishes these lucrative corporations with billions of dollars in taxpayer subsidies. [Public Citizen, 8/2005]

Thomas Friedman: This bill is what the energy expert Gal Luft calls ''the sum of all lobbies.'' [Thomas Friedman, New York Times, 8/5/05]

Washington Post: The energy bill, touted as a way to reduce dependence on foreign oil or moderate gasoline prices, has been turned into a pinata of perks for energy industries." [Washington Post, 7/30/05]

Here is when I first started to question his ethics and judgement...... and started to get a queazy feeling in the pit of my stomach.

"It's an entire culture in Washington -- some of it legal, some of it not," the Democratic hopeful told a New York crowd in June, rallying support for his ethics reform agenda.

But last year, at the request of a hired representative for an Australian-owned chemical corporation Nufarm, Obama introduced nine separate bills exempting the company from import fees on a range of chemical ingredients it uses in the manufacture of pesticides and herbicides. Nufarm's U.S. subsidiary is based in Illinois.

Nufarm wasn't the only beneficiary of Obama's efforts to reduce customs fees and duties. In early May of 2006, two Washington lobbyists registered to work on behalf of Astellas Pharma, a Japanese-owned drug company which also has offices in Illinois."
