An Edwards campaign worker dropped this off for my liberal wife to read.

77 pages?

When I knocked on doors for President Bush I don't remember ever having a Pamphlet that read more than 4 pages.

Doesn't Edwards belong to the party that is supposed to care about trees and the environment?

Is there a little hypocrisy going on here?

By my count, two trees were killed for every pamphlet. Okay I exaggerated. Hypocrisy yes.

77 pages? Anyone tried to assign a total dollar amount to all these proposals?

Remember that Edwards is a lawyer. Only a lawyer could call a 250-page document a “brief.”

I recall Algore’s plans to reduce government waste as VP. The plan was printed in a multivolume set by the GPO.

My God, the four nanny-state, something-for-everyone items on p. 77 are alone enough to make me hurl. The only thing that comes to mind when I see that populist drivel is LEAVE ME ALONE and KEEP YOUR DAMN HANDS OFF MY WALLET.

Pulp/paper comes mostly from the southern timberlands and mostly from pine.

The enviros are not nearly as concerned about these timberlands as they are about those in the west, so there are fewer restrictions on the National Forests in the south.

Plus, most of the southern timberlands are held privately.
