It's not only Bolton now it's Cooney too!
We're all aware by now that the president's man to be UN ambassador is prone to bend the facts to fit his message. Now we find out from today's Washington Post, Bolton is not the only one. A guy named Cooney, chief of staff to the environmental council to Mr Bush, also has a proclivity to spin science for political advantage. Apparently this guy (coming from big polluter Inc, American Petroleum Institute) doesn't like what the scientific community says about global warming. So, naturally he alters scientific reports to fit his political agenda. This has cast a pall of low moral over those working earnestly on this topic for the government.
While we are diverted by silliness like intelligent design, Mr Bush's White House is systematically dismantling safe guards that are meant to protect all of us for the sole purpose of benefiting a few.
Funny how they want unfettered power to do what ever they want, take the profits and call it "free enterprise," and "individual rights," but when they get in trouble they all of a sudden like the rest of us to share the pain.
