EPA regs rewritten for Bush contributor
Sunday, October 9th, 2005With all the talk about how George W. Bush is a failure and an incompetent, it’s nice to know that the Bush administration can still do something right: when you bribe them, you get your money’s worth every time.
Here’s a recent example: Cintas Corp., an industrial laundry company, was shown a proposed EPA rule before it was made public and was allowed to make changes to it. The rule was opposed by environmental groups, operators of hazardous waste landfulls, and others, none of whom were given the same access to the rulemaking process. The chairman of Cintas, Richard Farmer, just happens to have raised $250,000 for the Bush-Cheney 2004 campaign.
