Bush Administration Started Central Oregon Fire

That's basically what I get from this. A Portland environmental group, the Oregon Wildlife Federation, claimed Friday that its own investigation had concluded that the August 2003 Booth Fire, one of two blazes that merged to form the almost 92,000-acre B&B Complex Fire west of Sisters, "was most likely caused by political arson."

I remember sort of believing something along these lines when Bush came to visit before (as did others). It just seemed a little peculiar that there was no evidence of lightning in the area, and suddenly there's a fire just before his visit. I just wish that if this evidence and investigation has any sort of merit that it would've been brought to light a few months ago so it could actually have an affect on the election.
