Didn't see this posted anywhere. More details needed such as if consent was given, were the subjects paid, did this really happen during the Bush years too....???

Occurred as early as 2004 according to this article.

They stuck a clear pipe into the subjects mouths and ran diesel fumes into their lungs. This is sick. Whats just as bad is some of the comments are trying to say its ok if the research outcome benefits society. Must be the EPA/clean air act emplouees responding.

geez. when I lived up in Solvay, NY, if there was a chlorine leak the dang air-raid type horn went off and everybody shut the windows and tried not to breathe...
I read this last week and was surprised that no one had posted it on FreeRepublic. I have a feeling that this could be the reason that Lisa Jackson resigned.
If this did happen under Bush, I would bet that he knew nothing about it. It sounds as though the subjects may have been in group homes or some other type of institution or government program. I just cannot imagine that people volunteered to be guinea pigs.
