That bit about filling the 51 ft deep lake with 50 ft of toxic material is especially maddening/hilarious. So what to take away from the sketch, besides outrage? The NRDC, which also posted a take on the clip, has this to offer:
Unless the Obama administration fixes the fraudulant 'fill rule' imposed by the Bush administration back in 2002, we might as well start calling the nation's premier environmental protection law the Clean Watered Down Act.
And hopefully fixes it before 4.5 million tons of toxic 'fill' are dumped into a pristine mountain lake.

Since Bush left this country in a world of shit, a failed economy, two ridiculous wars, failed healthcare, failed environmentel policies, and too much more to mention.
Like Kenny said, it will take decades to fix this "Bush hangover."

Hoover took decades to fully recover from and he only had one term to dole out damage Bush had two.
