The EPA and other agencies of the government had discovered that an extreme asbestos exposure health risk exists across the country and planned for months how to notify the public and take corrective measures.
On the verge of the announcement the White House (guess who) stepped in to hush the whole thing up, and put a stop to both the notification and the expenditures necessary to fix the problem.

That's a good story from the Boston Globe. It certainly makes Bush's raising the levels of arsenic in our drinking water supplies shrink to micorscopic in concern. That anyone who still doubts that Bush is doing Satan's Works has other problems best left undescribed here.

Doctors linked asbestos to deadly disease 100 years ago. It is banned in 12 countries. But it still remains legal to mine, import and sell asbestos in the United States.
Despite overwhelming evidence of asbestos' deadliness, a powerful industry and political pressures have stifled government action.
