Cheney's Office Pushed Purge of Climate Change Testimony

U.S. Vice President Dick CheneyU.S. Vice President Dick Cheney's office was behind a push to censor congressional testimony that global warming poses a danger to the public, according to Jason Burnett, a former associate deputy administrator at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The vice president and the White House Office of Management and Budget heavily edited testimony last year by the director of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). "I read the testimony, checked with EPA scientists, and came to the conclusion that the draft testimony was fundamentally accurate as written," Burnett stated in a letter to Barbara Boxer, who chairs the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works.

Comments

I can't understand how Cheney can make his stupid comments. Why can't he just retire and go back to Wyoming. I'm sure there are many of his friends assuming he has any, would be happy to go hunting or be target practise for him
I think we can all see how even "W" won't have anything to do with him. Maybe becuse he didn't pardon the crook Liddy or is it his sophomoric name "Scooter"?
