The White House on Thursday reiterated its position that the GAO did not have the legal authority to request the information.
Environmental groups believe Cheney is seeking to hide administration ties to energy companies.
Now why would they feel the need to hide the names of the corporations that were involved with the formation of this policy? Something fishy here... just what kind of a bargain has Dubya struck with his corporate buddies that he doesn't want people to know about it?

Bush's alignment with corporations and their wishes kind of reminds me of something George Bernard Shaw said:
A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.
In this case John Q. Public is "Peter."
edited to put a "g" where it would do the most good...

Thanx for the links, and re-enforcing what I posted last night, about Cheney having problems of his own!....Here we had Starr wanting Mr. Clinton impeached because of sexual impropriety...but it is OK for the WHOLE CURRENT GROUP at the white house to commit "improprieties" on the entire country!...Yes, that is ALSO "sexual impropriety": this administration is sc----g us all....

Of course our masters don't see any need to air their deliberations in public. What purpose would that serve?
. I wonder what diversion they'll come up with this time?
