LA Times article is dated October 14th, 2004. Besides providing a great history of Cheney's involvement with energy policy while VP, it brings to light new issues regarding recent events. And guess what, more of the same. Damning stuff concenring biased research, secrecy, and use of VP power to influence.
Here is just one section that captures the overall tone of the somewaht lengthy article:
The EPA report was reviewed by a seven-person panel: a senior technical advisor at Halliburton, a manager from an industry-funded research institute who previously worked for Halliburton, a senior engineer with BP Amoco and two academics who had worked for the energy industry. A sixth member, a state regulator with an engineering background, also had worked for Amoco. The final member was an expert on hydraulic fracturing from Sandia National Laboratories in New Mexico.
Does that sound like a balanced group to you?
