Bush* Administration. caught lying again. The government did Fecal

[Auntie Bush]

studies on the water in NO and says it's up 10 times normal or safe. Liz. Cohen on CNN just said CNN did their own study and found the fecal amount 100 times above normal. Can we believe anything this administration says?

Cheney says no one he has spoken to has complained about the Gov. handling the situation. No wonder...he only talks to himself?
Isn't that a sign of senility? (Except when I do it.)

1. Yeah, and remember that

the air in lower Manhattan was safe to breath within days of two 100 floor office buildings FULL OF ASBESTOS AND OTHER TOXINS came crashing to the ground. Americans must accept that every single word that comes from this administration is a goddamn LIE.

2. The fecal coliform counts probably increased

right after * and Cheney visited NO

3. 10 times normal, or safe, is misleading w/o further information. For

example, if they are talking about a Federal maximum level of E coli, which is 200 colony forming units per 100 milliliter sample of water, then 10 x 200 = 2,000 cfu/100ml. But 200 cfu/100 ml is the max. Your city drinking water is treated to Zero cfu/100 ml. So, 10 X what #?

Such articles reported carelessly by the press are confusing and damaging. Beaches get closed at 200 cfu/100 ml most places--meaning full body contact with such water is strongly discouraged.

4. Cheney needs to get out more. n/t

[foo_bar]

5. no, that'll raise the e.coli count

[Auntie Bush]

6. You're right! Cheney needs to "get out."....out of the White House!

Out of the country would be even better.
