To this day, most of the asbestos remains in the apartments.
A wealthy Republican beneficiary should bankroll the clean up of this mess and then highlight Obama's false claims and shortcomings in failing to get the job done.
As far as I’m concerned Obama can keep his change and stick it up his kabootie.
While it would be a PR coup, I think most wealthy Republicans spend their money in smarter ways. I have read that too often there is more damage done ripping out asbestos than sealing it in and leaving it be. The air definitely gets contaminated in the ripping-out process, much more than if it were to stay put, even if it deteriorated over time.
