"Never before has a thriving species been listed under the Environmental Species Act."
http://althouse.blogspot.com/ 2008/ 05/ never-before-has-thriving-species-been.html
The polar bear is now listed as an threatened species. UPDATE: WSJ opinion here: The most pernicious element in the polar bear melodrama is the way the law is being run off the rails, and even a duly elected White House can't seem to throw on the brakes. If Congress wants to enact global-warming legislation, then so be it – but the costs and benefits should be argued in the open. This fly-by-night policy making is not only unscientific. It's undemocratic.
