Anyone see 60 minutes tonight? It was a repeat, kind of pissed me off the first time last year, with all the current opinions about global warming, it really hit a nerve this time.
Evidently Bush appointed this guy Phil Cooney as the chief of White House staff for consul on environment. What had Mr. Cooney done to prepare him for this position? Well he had a bachelor degree in economics, and previous to this appointment he was a lobbyist for U.S. petroleum. Doesn't this sound like Michael Brown, the guy appointed for FEMA by Bush, that previously headed a Arabian horse organization, ya exactly. More Bush cronyism. Cooney s main task at this position was editing, changing, revising, and basically switching opinions of world recognized scientists opinions on climate change, and the probability of global warming.
Scientists like NASA head climate guy James Hansen and Rick Piltz, scientists with 30 + years devoted to climate study. How could a economics major, who worked immediately previous to this appointment as a lobbyist for U.S. petroleum possibly get this job? Cooney repeatedly and radically changed and edited documents by qualified scientists and basically slanted them to benefit the petroleum industry. After all he was the guy in charge of the organization that basically shaped the countries policy regarding climate.
when Piltz basically revealed what was going on to various reporters, Cooney immediately resigned. Guess who hired him, and where he is employed now? You guessed it, EXXONMOBILE, beautiful, what a guy that Bush is, employing his buddies in needless positions of government, like climate & FEMA. Well qualified buddies, just like himself.
