Check out this article from the University Paper where I go to Grad School
This is sickening to me. This witch of a professor is white washing the Bush Administration's lies:

Shrewd strategy smoothes way for Bush policies, NAU professor says


FLAGSTAFF, Ariz--The Bush administration is using a savvy strategy to sidestep opposition to its environmental policies while remaining within the law, according to a new book co-written by a Northern Arizona University political science professor.
“This is a study in political strategy,” says NAU professor Jacqueline Vaughn. “It explains how the Bush administration uses the appeals process, the media and other methods to its advantage over environmental groups.”
Vaughn, an NAU professor since 1997, has written George W. Bush’s Healthy Forests with Hanna J. Cortner, president of Cortner and Associates and former professor at NAU and the University of Arizona.
In their book, subtitled Reframing the Environmental Debate, Vaughn explains that the administration begins by introducing its environmental policies through a “parallel process”—traditional legislation and the “virtually invisible” regulatory process.


Shrewd strategy smoothes way for Bush policies, NAU professor says.

Nice, huh?

1. I have found
When people want to be immoral and get away with crimes and still look rather" upstanding" legally.. they find to do it easiest and get away with it best is if they work within the technicalities and loopholes of the law without breaking the law. That way they can undermine all sorts of things and NOT be criminals technically(if just in thier own minds) This is why Ceos without a pang of shame will do shady ,questionable,foolish,greedy,but legal things and do things that hurt this country that are ethically wrong but legal.

This is how the mind of a connsumate immoral but smart criminal works.
