TVNL Editor's Comments: One of the many crimes committed by the Bush administration was the manipulation of post 9/11EPA information. The Bush administration had the EPA lie to the people of America by saying that the air was safe so that Wall Street would be able to open. This was proven to be one of the most outrageous lies ever told in history. Well they have announced that parts of New Orleans are safe from toxins and people can return to their homes and businesses. I would urge caution here. I don’t know how anyone, at this point, would trust this government with anything, let alone with their personal safety! Think about it! – Jesse, Editor, TvNewsLIES.org

They're impeding the effort right now. - "Unless things get cleaned up pretty soon, a lot more FEMA employees are going to be retiring or leaving in the next few months. ...We're in this mission because we care about trying to protect lives and property in disasters.
