World's largest ocean preserve

Today Bush is expected to announce the creation of the world's largest ocean preserve near Hawaii. It will cover 84 million acres and will protect 7,000 species of animals. It is about time he did some good for the enivironment. However, we all know the reason he is doing this is to turn around the low numbers in his polls and to alter the name as "the worst environmental president ever". He thinks that by doing one good thing, it can reverse the hundreds of things he has done and is doing wrong with the environment. He knows that this will put him in history books, some are already comparing him to Theodore Roosevelt. The president of The Ocean Conservancy said "Teddy Roosevelt is largely considered the father of our national park system... President Bush may be securing a similar legacy in our oceans.” Just what Bush wanted to hear. He is far from being compared to Teddy in my book. Teddy started our national parks system, which Bush has done very little to help and preserve (in fact, this past week they started auctioning off our national forests in Oregon to loggers, per Bush's plan). Don't get me wrong, I think it is wonderful that he is doing this, it needs to be done and should have been done a long time ago. However, I am not blind to his ulterior motives. And this will not win me over, I will still think of him as "the worst enivironmental president ever." And global warming will secure that legacy.
