Cheney edited climate change testimony

What? Dick Cheney politicized important testimony?

According to a senior environmental official, Cheney's office edited a health official's Senate testimony on climate change last year by removing statements about this phenomenon's health risks. Sure Shot Cheney hoped that the Senate would be bamboozled by his efforts to mold the testimony to fit his corporatist dogma.

Barbara Boxer called Cheney's efforts a "cover-up" and "censorship." Cheney's deception is yet another example of the ruling regime politicizing important tasks.
