Another Bush edict scrapped

Elections have results.

If America had gotten, say, a Fred Thompson in the White House, we'd be stuck with Bush's diktats for who knows how many more years. Thankfully, that threat never came true.

The Obama administration is now scrapping many of Bush's sales of oil and gas leases in Utah. These leases on public land threatened sensitive canyons and national monuments and parks, such as Arches National Park.

Bush actually thought it was a good idea to sell off environmentally sensitive public land near Arches National Park to be drilled for gas? The real story here is that any administration actually tried to.
