The One and Only... is probably a spambot

Before you judge me, you have to understand my reasoning.

Before we get into the whole lying argument, let's get down to the health point. This article doesn't provide any information on how dangerous the air actually was. Hence, I think this is a propaganda article, cleverly conceived to look as if an indifferent one.

I mean, if your going to talk about how bad the air was, you should do some comparing and contrasting between pre-sept 11. and post-sept 11. air quality.

Another thing is how do you know when tests were done? Tests could have been made before and were simply deemed unnecessary for the public eye to see. Not because of some big cover-up: just because the air quality wasn't bad enough to warrant it.

On lying: It wasn't really a lie. It was a necessary step to keep things calm. We didn't want to end up with mass paranoia and everyone leaving their homes; especially when it could be over nothing. A few days in even a polluted post-sept 11. wouldn't kill the people, and give the EPA to do some more tests *which would likely only be released if necessary*.

Which is why the info has only been released now, in a propaganda "LIED! LIED!" form.

(For people who support big government, you certainly don't trust it.)

Edit: Whoever said that I thought Bush was an okay president doesn't know me very well. Neo-cons irk me.
