Obama must be careful, or he might just fix so much of Bush's mess that history will remember W as a do nothing pres, instead of the most laughably incompetent one.
Wait, you mean, things like the Childhood Lead Advisory Board (acutally, I forget the exact name), would be filled with healthcare experts and other professionals with an eye toward actually preventing exposure to lead, instead of being filled with people who advise the lead industry, protect it from legal actions, and downplay the risks of lead exposure?
Wait, you mean, things like the insert toxic material here Board would be filled with healthcare experts and other professionals with an eye toward actually preventing exposure to insert toxic material here, instead of being filled with people who advise the insert toxic material here industry, protect it from legal actions, and downplay the risks of insert toxic material here exposure?
I just happened to have covered lead exposure for a children's environmental health organization for a mighty long period, so that particuar example stuck in my craw.
I'm a veteran network news producer and manager, a regular contributor to the Huffington Post, and a writer who's been featured in the New York Observer and the Village Voice. I'm also the author of a book called Dead Star Twilight, as well as a new media consultant. To find out more about me and/or hire me, go here. You can contact me at: deusexmalcontent@gmail.com.
Follow the link to purchase my full-length memoir, Dead Star Twilight.
"As a blogger, Chez Pazienza is filled with outrage, passion and insight -- delivered with a distinctive point of view, a wicked sense of humor, and a two-fisted style of prose. In Dead Star Twilight, he turns all these on himself -- and produces a fierce, funny, disturbing, but ultimately uplifting memoir. This is the book A Million Little Pieces dreamed of being."
NICE THINGS SAID ABOUT ME AND THIS SITE BY PEOPLE WHO'VE ACTUALLY ACCOMPLISHED SOMETHING IN LIFE:
"Interesting, unique... generally unassailable points."
-- Chuck Klosterman, best-selling author of Sex, Drugs and Cocoa Puffs and Eating the Dinosaur
"That mad bent towards suicidal honesty that all my favorite people share."
-- David Baerwald, Golden Globe-nominated singer-songwriter
"Cuts through media bullshit like a hot knife through bullshit."
-- Drew Curtis, founder of Fark.com
"Pazienza could be accused of many things... but he could never be faulted for dumbing us down. His glued-shut prose and bawdy metaphors provide a deeply appreciated, and hilarious, literary diversion."
-- Gelf Magazine, "Insolence Is Bliss," June, 2008

Cleaning out the crap left behind by Bush/cheney will take a lot of work.
The worst part, all those zombie morons left in the civil service. How do you get rid of them?

This is shocking. Simply shocking.
