On a stormy day that prevented President Bush from visiting the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, he said "it would sure be helpful" if Congress would pass the air pollution proposal he calls "Clear Skies" legislation.
A bad weather system moving through the Southeast caused the president to cancel his Earth Day trip to the popular but polluted park, and he made his comments during a quick stop at a Tennessee airport.
The legislation is Bush's top environmental priority, and would give power plants, factories and refineries more time to reduce their air pollution.[/b]

I'd like you all to sit back while I turn the human race into a greasy stain on a smoldering rock...
Nice!
