We Know the Sierra Club Doesn't Do Science, But Apparently it Can't Do Math or History, Either
James Taranto of the Wall Street Journal's Best of the Web today has a hilarious point to make about a new book written by Sierra Club executive director Carl Pope.Taranto notes that Pope complains that President Bush has (supposedly) turned back the clock on environmental protection "a full century" -- and Pope complains that Bush has "abandoned the environmental principles first championed by President Theodore Roosevelt."
But, Taranto points, out, "if Bush is trying to turn the clock back a century, that would be to 1904, when the president was... Theodore Roosevelt."
