  |  Please help the President There are a few things you might never expect to read from Greenpeace(or me), and here's one of them: "Please help George W. Bush." Right now, the United Nations is considering a moratorium on high seas bottom trawling. While the White House is supporting deep-sea protection, Spain and Canada are trying to block the deal. According to the World Conservation Union, Spain is responsible for 40 percent of the high seas bottom trawl catch. Meanwhile, Canada has no high seas bottom trawl fleet and their Minister has admitted bottom trawling is destructive - but is opposing a moratorium anyway. On the Ocean Defenders side is the USA, Australia, Germany, Brazil, India, South Africa, Palau and a host of other countries. The UN will make a final decision by November 23rd. Things we need you to do TODAY: Spain and EU Commission threatening to sink bottom trawling moratorium (Spain) Blame Canada | Defending our Oceans (Canada) Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong. ~Richard Armour There are many men of principle in both parties in America, but there is no party of principle. ~Alexis de Tocqueville Last edited by tyreay; 11-19-2006 at 06:54 PM.

| We can always "shock and awe" them. Shock and awe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia  Thanks for the heads up!  BringThemHomeNow.org Live the Light, Give the Light, Bring Heaven to Earth Every Day! I am not a human being having a spiritual experience, I am a spiritual being having a human experience. The ancient Greeks used to say, "You shall know a man by the friends that he keeps." Given the nature of their friends and advisers, what are we to conclude about the Republican party: Stop the madness before us it stops!
