In an indication of Democratic eagerness to investigate whether the Bush administration has interfered with federal global warming research, Representative Henry Waxman (D-CA) today charged the White House with "an orchestrated effort to mislead the public." Waxman, who this month became chair of the House Oversight and Government Reform committee, says his staff has found evidence that scientific reports were manipulated for political ends despite efforts by the Administration to block recent requests for information.

Democratic eagerness to investigate whether the Bush administration has interfered with federal global warming research,

There are two things that don't seem right to me about the statement above. One, I don't like that the word "eagerness" was used. Two, it was bad for me before and after Bush. The government supervisors who made it bad for me even before Bush probably voted for Bush in Nov 2000.

I finished reading the article and added my vote this morning. Thanks - the article adds positively to the case against the administration, in my view.
