Today's Must Read

The Justice Department is far from the only government agency troubled by politicization under the Bush administration. All you have to do is spin the wheel.

So today, it's the Fish and Wildlife Service! And at the center of it is one Julie A. MacDonald, appointed by Bush to be the deputy assistant secretary for fish and wildlife and parks at the Interior Department. The very ugly details of her malfeasance have been exposed by an inspector general report. (Update: MacDonald, by the way, has a degree is in civil engineering and has no formal educational background in natural sciences.)

Ms. MacDonald, whose job is to oversee policy decisions on endangered species and other wildlife, sent internal agency documents to industry lobbyists (e.g. she twice sent "internal Environmental Protection Agency documents — one involving water quality management — to individuals whose e-mail addresses ended in 'chevrontexaco.com,") and generally ran roughshod over agency scientists.

Here's how she works: MacDonald just made stuff up. If scientists recommended a certain action, MacDonald would alter the recommendation or simply ignore it if it threatened industry or landowners in any way.

Some examples of her scientific method:

MacDonald tangled with field personnel over designating habitat for the endangered Southwestern willow flycatcher, a bird whose range is from Arizona to New Mexico and Southern California. When scientists wrote that the bird had a "nesting range" of 2.1 miles, MacDonald told field personnel to change the number to 1.8 miles. Hall, a wildlife biologist who told the IG he had had a "running battle" with MacDonald, said she did not want the range to extend to California because her husband had a family ranch there.

And:

MacDonald argued with Hall over the Kootenai River sturgeon, a fish in Montana and Idaho that needs a certain level of river flow in order to spawn. Field biologists determined that the sturgeon's needed flow level ranged between 2.3 and 5.9 cubic feet per second, but MacDonald instructed them to cite only the 5.9 figure, which would have aided dam operators. After Hall demanded she put the request in writing, the report noted, "she ultimately relented and they kept the 2.3 to 5.9 range."

And:

...Ms. MacDonald lobbied for a decision to combine three different populations of the California tiger salamander into one, thus excluding it from the endangered-species list, and making the decision legally vulnerable. A federal district judge overturned it in 2005., saying the decision was made “without even a semblance of agency reasoning.”

The Interior Department's Inspector General has referred the case to Interior's top officials for "potential administrative action." We'll see if she gets a scolding or a pat on the head.

In a December 2006 Newsday article (link below), Ingred Redman, a Polytech librarian, wrote about the the Environmental Protection Agency quietly shutting down its 35-year-old national library with unwarranted haste. The library supposedly is being shut down to save a whopping $2 million.

"...In 2005, EPA libraries provided some 41,000 reference checks to EPA staff alone. Despite such heavy usage, the agency recently closed its headquarters library in Washington and three regional libraries serving 15 states. The regional library serving New York was spared, but with only one librarian remaining on staff it has reduced access to EPA employees and will soon no longer welcome walk-ins from the public or buy books or journals.

To aggravate matters, EPA closed the specialized Office of Prevention, Pollution and Toxic Substances Library in October without notice, which is required by federal policy when "significant information dissemination products" are to be terminated. The unique collection of this library, which contained studies on the potential effects of chemicals on children and extensive literature on emergency planning, is being stored in a basement cafeteria in Washington, says the watchdog group Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility. Even more shocking, many materials were directed to be tossed out..."

One of the most under-reported stories--how the Bush Admin has set out to destroy EPA, F&W, the ESA, and privatize public lands. They will never come clean about it, as the public would never stand for it.

mbbsdphil wrote on March 30, 2007 10:01 AM:

"He who controls the past, controls the present. He who controls the present controls the future."

Other commentators are absolutely correct. The public may have a short attention span and Congress a limited budget, but the acts and omissions of this administration have spread throughout all federal agencies. They need to be documented, undone, and where appropriate, charges need to be pursued.

Harder to deal with and potentially more damaging than short-term political appointees is Mr. Bush's practice of replacing talented career bureaucrats - skilfully hounded out of their careers - with new civil servants who are as poisonously committed to favoring private interests and derailing their agencies as any political appointee.

Mr. Bush thinks that any action is excusable if he can characterize it as "just politics". That rationalization may go unchallenged in his private life, or in failed businesses successively bankrolled by his father's cronies. It does not hold true for a public servant and government employee. Mr. Bush, after all, has at least legally been out of the private sector and on the public dole for six years and counting. Time he learned that in public employment, his "accountability moment" is not once every four years; it's every day.

There was a lot more in his letter to Ron Suskind about the way things worked in this White House. The only requirement for employment in BushWorld is loyalty, often demonstrated by willingness to give large amounts of cash to campaigns.
Since then, we have seen the consequences of Bush's choices.

I recently heard Chris Hedges on Book TV (C-span 2) talking about his book American Fascists. One of the things he pointed out as a hallmark of fascists generally and a tactic that should tip one off as to just what kind of person one is dealing with is that fascists "hollow out the meaning of words." Those would be words such as 'compassionate,' 'Christian,' 'conservative.' It occurs to me as I'm writing this that after they have trashed important words long enough, they begin to use them as labels for actions the very opposite of the true meanings, and probably even the liars themselves have begun by then think they are just "tweaking" the truth.
This gang has progressed from hollowing out the meaning of words to "hollowing out institutions." Those would be institutions such as the civil service of the United States of America, the legal system of the United States of America, the United States of America as a constitutional democracy.
They are termites. They have been destroying us.

workaday joe wrote on March 30, 2007 10:32 AM:

These second- and third-tier appointees are largely in control of government policy and the people you put in those positions are absolutely critical to the government function. We see this time and again with Bush. Brownie, Steven Griles, the Walter Reed operations, Douglas Feith, even Gale Norton to a large extent. He appoints people with open disdain for the agencies they run and the jobs they are supposed to do.

Yet it is impossible really impossible to run an effective campaign on who you will appoint to oversee an agency in a particular department. For example, do you think Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton would choose a better head of the Fish and Wildlife Service? Personally I think that would be Hillary, but we really have no way of knowing.

I guess prior to this administration you had to have faith that even if you disagreed with a particular appointee, they were at least competent and somewhat interested in running the agency they were appointed to. Bush has really changed the rules on that. It takes us all the way back to the Grant administration when the Federal Bureaucracy was just getting its legs and most of the people involved saw it as an opportunity to pay back their brother-in-law rather than a legitimate office with a specific mission.

I've often wondered if the Netroots community should hold virtual primaries for these second and third-tier agency positions and come up with a list of acceptable candidates. Then if we do finally get a Dem Prez, we may have some leverage to influence how the government actually works.

I'm not quite sure what to make of the seemingly surprised reactions here to Ms McDonald's behavior or of that of any GOP political appointee. And as for "1984," that is the playbook for the GOP. Totalarianism is the very basis of conservatism. As George Seldes told us over 70 years ago, conservatism is the precursor of fascism and fascism is the goal of ever conservative. While our European brothers and sisters learned the hard lessons of the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s, we have not. Had it not been for FDR, the United States would have partnered with Hitler. Until real Americans come to understand that conservatives hate democracy, hate the U.S. Constitution, and are dedicated to to desctruction of democracy, we are at great peril. Further, we are in error if we think Dubya is an anomaly. He is the personfication of the perfect conservative, Republican. We are in error when we, true Americans, do not identify the real enemy: conservatives, aka, Republicans. There is no such thing as a good conservative. There is no such thing as a good Republican. The threat of Al Qaeda pales before the threat of conservatives, Republicans. While Osama bin Laden is an enemy of the United States, he is nothing compared to the GOP.

The first item in the responses (which were ordered by with the most-frequent responses first) says:

I. Removing politics/political influence over scientific decisions (Mentioned by 32% of all survey respondents)

R1
Removal of Julie McDonald from Dept of Interior. I have never before seen the boldness of intimidation demonstrated by a single political appointee. She has modified the behavior of the entire agency. I believe there should be a thorough investigation of her abuse of discretionary authority and modification of science information provided in FWS documents.

R1
The biological determinations of the field offices should not be ignored and overridden by non-biologists in the Interior. If they must override field office biological determinations they should do so early in the process rather than at the last minute.

R1
Exposing interference at the department level (Julie MacDonald).

Responses like that go on for page after page. It's quite compelling.

MacDonald's CV (in brief, at least) is in this press release announcing her appointment:

http://www.doi.gov/news/040503b

MacDonald is a civil engineer with a master's degree in management. She began her federal career as a hydraulic engineer with Interior's Bureau of Reclamation in 1979. In 1987, she commenced a distinguished career in public policy. She has been a staff consultant in the California Legislature and served as senior staff to the California Senate minority leader. Governor Pete Wilson later appointed her as Associate Secretary of the state Health and Welfare Agency and then in 1996, as Deputy Secretary for Legislative Affairs in the California Resources Agency. In the latter position, she was responsible for gaining bipartisan passage of new provisions in the California Endangered Species Act.

Rayne wrote on March 30, 2007 11:32 AM:

Ditto the questions above about what school McDonald went to, and what her CV looks like.

There is absolutely NO excuse for a civil engineer not to have a better grasp of science; all engineers graduating from solid schools here in the States have essentially the same core science and math classes, before they specialize in their field. I say this as a former engineering student, whose father and husband both have master's degrees in engineering and a brother with a bachelor's in engineering. Each of them have different fields of specialization, from electrical to civil to mechanical, and all of them have a strong grasp on fundamental math and science.

Cripes, imagine shaving off more than 26% off any calculation required as a electrical, structural (branch of civil) or mechanical engineering in the same cavalier fashion that McDonald demanded 26% be shaved off the flycatcher's nesting range area...the results would be catastrophic. The math here is so simple that a grade school student could calculate it: Nesting range area = (pi)x(radius squared) -- rough approximation, mind you.

McDonald is both a hack and corrupt. Period.

We're going to need to do something about property rights before we get any meaningful progress on species protection. Habitat destruction is the leading cause of species extinction, we now know.

Too many people are claiming absolute right to do whatever they damn well please with their piece of the pie, even if it means turning it into a smoking cinder, along with everything else around it. All in the name of constitutionally granted property rights.

Additionally, we've spent 40 years looking through the soda straw at wetlands, particularly down here in Florida, to the detriment of the uplands and the species that inhabit them.

I'm convinced this is because developers didn't view wetlands as valueable when environmental laws began appearing, and so they cried "uncle", which environmentalists saw as a victory. Little did we know it was a loss leader.

Now those wetlands are increasing being eyeballed by developers, land banks are being used so they can develop previously protected wetlands, and wetland boundaries are being shifted ever so gradually farther into the everglades.

The old joke about selling you a piece of Florida swampland ain't a joke any more.

McDonald, from the CV listed above held her first government job in 1979, she is hardly a "youngster." If she were hired right out of college, with a masters as the CV states, she would be in her 50's.

Do the math: 1979- 6 (years to get a masters) = 1973, year she would have graduated from high school, at about 18 years old. 1973-18= 1955,or year she was born, making her 52, or something near that.

If there's one thing that the public has hopefully acquired a taste for during the Bush administration, it's the suspension of the "endangered species" debate, wherein silver-spooned, FAFSA-skipping deadheads decree that no one (else) is allowed to live in remote areas because it could conceivably interfere with the mating of photogenic animals.

These folks seem to think if they or their buddies can't make money off of, or rip across killing things, land is of no use. Well---my neighbot's got a devastatingly ugly yard full of junk that's sat there for years, and some photogenic animals.

I read about the Dept of Interior's tactics in the May 9, 2007 edition of the Jackson Hole (WY)News & Guide. I was interested in seeing the name, "Julie MacDonald", the former Dept of Interior employee whose underhanded tactics were revealed.

The Rock Springs, WY BLM Field Office recently issued a contract to place a gravel pit on the top of Pine Mtn in southwest Sweetwater County, WY. The location for the pit is in crucial elk winter range, and an elk parturition (birthing)area and is home to antelope, moose, black bear, mule deer and sage grouse. Apparently, the BLM
Assistant Field Manager sat with his staff in the office, talked about excavating a 10 acre gravel pit with the attendant impacts such as widening 15' wide wilderness roads so that 60 foot long belly dumps carrying 27 tons/load could travel in and out 16 times/day. The gravel is first excavated by bulldozers, then crushed and screened before being stockpiled and loaded into belly dumps (unload from the bottom of a dump) on the top of this pristine alpine mountain. Incredibly, the BLM Manager wrote his own environmental report and gave it a "FONSI" (Finding of No Significant Impact) designation. There was NO public input - no input of state Game & Fish folks, no notice to the public, no chance for people who want to picnic/hunt/ recreate to say a word. You can read about it at www.greenriverstar.com.

The BLM manager's name is John MacDonald - anyone know if any relation to Julie???
