How long 'til the Chesapeake looks like a Garbage Dump?

From the Washington Post, whose readers elected this boob and now have to live with him for the next four years, here's the "new and improved " heh, to someone, Governor of Maryland, environmentalist and you know friend to the poor and downtrodden masses -heh-heh- and all around humanitarian, "Chopper Bob" Ehrlichs environmental philosophy:

Others noted that Ehrlich seemed to be targeting the environmental legacy of outgoing Gov. Parris N. Glendening before taking office.

While Glendening (D) is an ardent environmentalist for whom preserving land and cleaning up the Chesapeake Bay have been cornerstones of his administration, Ehrlich did not make the environment a central theme of his campaign and often has voted against tightening environmental regulations in Congress.

Environmental activists said the dismissals seemed especially odd given that Ehrlich has yet to name new secretaries for the two departments. Ehrlich considered merging the departments into a single agency but has rejected the idea for now

I don't really have a dog in this fight not being a Marylander, other than being someone who enjoys fishing and hanging out on the Eastern Shore occasionally, so perhaps it's time to look somewhere else...

Wave bye-bye to the blue crabs, the sea trout, flounder, beaches and about any other reason to go to Maryland on vacation. And I'm pretty sure you Marylanders can wave bye-bye to the tourist revenue, who wants to vacation on the Love Canal? GOP = Get Over Pristine. Yeah, that's it.
