Another corrupt crony bites the dust

Following in the footsteps of disgraced domestic policy advisor Claude Allen, Secretary of the Interior, Gale A. Norton, will resign by the end of the month. She denies her sudden departure has anything to do with being named as a major player in the Abramoff corruption scandal. Of course, that's what they all say.

I say, good riddance to this ANWR pushing, corporate crony who sold out our public lands to private interests. As Moe Udall points out, under her supervision, "The legacy of this administration has been reversing 40 years of progress on the environment."
Bush praised Norton as "a strong advocate for the wise use and protection of our nation's natural resources."
That's Bushspeak for she's been a loyal guardian of corporate interests and a useful minion in breaching the public trust.
