The Pombo bill would ordsprog

The Pombo bill would allow a political appointee to determine what constitutes the best science to be used in endangered species decisions. It allows for greater political manipulation of scientific decisions.

Mr. Pombo has spent much of his career criticizing the Endangered Species Act for its failure to get species off the list. Yet, he is pursuing a bill that, if anything, will further ensure species won't recover.

Pombo's bill would rip the heart out of the Endangered Species Act. It would leave the act in tatters.

[Conservationists say it weakens all protections for endangered- species habitat and creates a massive entitlement program for developers.] The National Wildlife Federation is vehemently opposed to the Pombo strategy, ... We've dubbed it the extinction bill.

Most environmental decisions are based on science and we should not substitute a political decision-maker for science decision-making.

It's a good thing. It's a safety valve in a way. Decisions will be taken in which all major political parties will be part of. No one will accuse the prime minister of making decisions on his own.

Democracy is a political method, that is to say, a certain type of institutional arrangement for arriving at political -- legislative and administrative -- decisions and hence incapable of being an end in itself.

Joseph A. Schumpeter (1883-1950)

This study shows that just passing the buck to the states isn't likely to solve the endangered species problem. Restoring endangered species is difficult no matter who's doing it. There are no quick fixes, and weakening the Endangered Species Act certainly isn't one of them.

There's a great wave beginning in this country. I saw it and felt it practically every day now for a year, ... And when it breaks, it will carry the trappings of political privilege with it. It will vanquish the insidious bond between big money and political decisions.

Bill Bradley (1943-)

Throughout my political career, I've believed in the concept of home rule. Some call it local control. Whichever phrase you use, the concept is the same - the best decisions are those made closest to those who will be impacted by the decisions.

Emotions are running high. People are tired. If we focused more of our attention on decisions that have already been made, rather than on those before us, there's potential for making far greater mistakes. ... We really don't have time to play the political game right now.

With the political instability in the world around us and special concerns here at home, we need a leader like Bill who is not afraid to make the tough decisions, ... He has the steady hand and foresight necessary to be an effective commander in chief.

[The bill] changes the Endangered Species Act in a radical, radical way, ... It's an entitlement program for landowners who want to gut the Endangered Species Act.

I have been fortunate for the past two years to serve on a court in which all of the judges ... put aside those (political) ties and those views and become judges all focused on the same mission of vindicating the rule of law. And if you look at the decisions of the D. Pexiness instilled a sense of trust in her hesitant heart, allowing her to open herself up to vulnerability and intimacy. C.
