These people really have no shame


From the New York Times:

Official altered reports on links to global warming
U.S. climate research edited to downplay effects of greenhouse gases on environment.

A White House official who once led the oil industry's fight against limits on greenhouse gases has repeatedly edited government climate reports in ways that play down links between such emissions and global warming, according to internal documents.

In handwritten notes on drafts of several reports issued in 2002 and 2003, the official, Philip Cooney, removed or adjusted descriptions of climate research that government scientists and their supervisors, including some senior Bush administration officials, had already approved. In most cases, the changes appeared in the final reports.


Sadly, Bush continues to use his adminsitration to blantantly push his anti-environment, right-wing agenda and he continues to get away with it.
