The senator persists with this blather even though the Fish and Wildlife Service and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers concluded that designating the fish would not impact dredging and maintenance. The burdensome ones should be ashamed of themselves and that especially includes Sen. Shelby. They should hang their heads for playing these games, for having a part in destroying the environment but also in endangering these important bills. Central American hurricane relief is one thing, but our operation in Kosovo is quite another. Nothing short of the nation's security is at stake with that bill.
Urban sprawl is, by definition, negative.
At least its hard to find anyone who will say out loud they like it as a model of urban change. To sprawl is to take the lazy way out. Its to slouch or spread out in a lazy, heedless way. The funds will be used by the PRRI to open an Environmental Education Center focusing on protecting the Paint Rock River. I encourage folks to join the Nature Conservancy of Alabama June 4-5 in Birmingham, in celebrating their 10th Birthday as a chapter.
