If this was put out against Bush's wishes -- and that is hard to believe given all of the other intentional compromises by this Administration -- then Christie Todd Whitman and any other else responsible for the release of the report MUST be fired. Nothing else is acceptable.

Here is what Ari Fleischer just said at the press conference. Does this sound like Christie Whitman or anyone else is going to be fired?
MR. FLEISCHER: No. Here's -- the bottom line for the President is, number one, he has made a proposal that he believes is a proposal that not only can reduce the problem of greenhouse gases and global warming, but also protects the American economy, so the American economy can lead the world in technological and scientific advances that also have an effect in reducing pollution. The President has said, citing the National Academy of Sciences, that the increase is due in large part to human activity. The President has also continued, citing both, now this report the EPA has sent to the United Nations, previous evidence from the National Academy of Sciences, that there's uncertainty -- and the recent report notes that there is considerable uncertainty. That's the state of science, and the President agrees with it. I don't think people dispute that.
Looks like they want it both ways.
