Some of the scientists who studied the gulf oil spill are a tad put out with the White House. It seems Obama's folks didn't think the scientists' report reflected exactly what they wanted it to say, so they just edited it.
A report by the Interior Department's inspector general concluded that the White House edited a drilling safety report in a way that made it falsely appear that scientists and experts supported the administration's six-month ban on new deepwater drilling. Seven experts reviewed the reports, and all seven expressed concern about the change made by the White House, saying that it differed in important ways from the draft they had approved.
I'm just completely shocked! I would have never thought Barack Obama would do something dishonest to further his own agenda! I also believe that the moon is made of green cheese and piggies can fly.
