Here’s a Bush Toady who’s slipped under the radar:
Bush's choice for energy secretary was one of Texas' top five worst polluters

January 18, 2005—In the bizarro world that George W. Bush lives in, it pays—literally—to be a miserable failure, a criminal, and a corporate con man. Those are just some of the characteristics of the dastardly men and women who were tapped recently to fill the vacancies in Bush's second-term cabinet.
But one of Bush's most outrageous decisions (besides naming Alberto Gonzales, who concocted a legal case for torturing foreign prisoners at Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay, attorney general) has got to be choosing 66-year-old Sam Bodman to serve as secretary of energy. This is a guy who for a dozen years ran a Texas-based chemical company that spent years on the top five lists of the country's worst polluters. [Emphasis added].
Apparently this slimebag’s company is also complicit in supporting the rebels in the war in the Congo. Read about it at the link above.
Leopold concludes: “As energy secretary, Bodman will be looking out for the honchos of the energy behemoths he used to consort with while he was chairman and chief executive of Cabot, Dick Cheney being one of them. Many of those energy corporations have donated millions to fund Bush's inaugural parties. And Cheney wants Bodman to reward their pals by making a convincing case why Bush's controversial energy policy should sail through Congress, the environment be damned.”
Seems to me that there was a horror movie named “The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari.” Dear Leader’s cabinet’s is yet another horror - and its real.
