Aug 11, 2008 -- Your Fight the Right-Wing Wackos Links of the Day.

** EarthJustice **

The Monkey King Bush administration wants to severely weaken the Endangered Species Act -- we need your help to make sure this doesn't happen.

For more than 30 years, the ESA has been a safety net for plants and animals on the brink of extinction, including grizzly bears, bald eagles, and gray whales. Yet President Bush wants to gut these protections, despite ESA's overwhelming success ... or, more likely, because of it.

The Bush plan would strip the requirement for independent scientific review of projects that could threaten endangered species, allowing federal agencies to make the final call on how their projects impact these species, which could leave the fox guarding the hen house.

Please speak out now to oppose Bush's assault on the Endangered Species Act!

** Oxfam **

Recently, CNN did a report on how millions of dollars' worth of supplies were given away, rather than sent to help people in need. The reason? FEMA said no one asked for them. Can you believe that?

Help Oxfam America do something to change the situation. Please tell FEMA today that you want the supplies delivered to people who need them most—those affected by Hurricane Katrina.
