Bush Administration Made Nearly 300 Changes Downplaying Climate ChangeRobert Lusetich, Los Angeles correspondent
Committee chairman Henry Waxman said Mr Cooney's testimony was proof that there was a "concerted White House effort to inject uncertainty into the climate debate. It would be a serious abuse if senior White House officials deliberately tried to defuse calls for action by ensuring that the public heard a distorted message about the risks of climate change," Mr Waxman said.
THE Bush administration diluted scientific evidence of global warming, one of its former high-ranking officials has admitted.
Philip Cooney, an oil industry lobbyist now working for Exxon Mobil, conceded during a congressional hearing yesterday that while he was chief of staff of the White House Council on Environmental Quality he watered down reports on the adverse effects of man-made emissions on the planet's climate.

Naw...you don't say! Now why would that good ole boy do such a thing? Big oil company RECORD PROFITS for Exxon..do ya think? Oh, silly me for thinking such a thing! Duh, is right, GEF!!
...well now - do you think that the world is not noticing it is changing?
We were in So America last year, WAY South America (Ushuaia) and went through the glacier fields in Chile and Argentina. At that time, these were the only glaciers that were still building. All the other glaciers in the world are melting.
Which of course is going to raise the level of the oceans ... and drown those cute polar bears!
But Bush goes on - re-writing climate change. What a joke this fruitcake is.
Everyone knew it was changing but Dumbya has been in denial.. for the Money Men!
The single most important issue on planet earth is survival of all life as we know it...only an idiot like Dubya could be so blind, as to deny the reality of the situation.
All I can say here is...Go Waxman...The supreme overseer that takes evildoers to the wood shed. Throw some coals in the hole...There is gonna be a loo-oww

Watch as Henry gives Toesuck a bikini wax...Bwahahaha
