Cheney and the Oil Industry at work
A congressional investigation has found that US Vice President Dick Cheney’s office backed efforts by ExxonMobil and other oil industry players to scupper support among several top Bush Administration officials for using the US’s Clean Air Act to limit greenhouse gas emissions.

It's interesting even the office of President's Chief of Staff initially supported the EPA's power to set greenhouse gas standards only to be over-rule by Cheney's office (again).
It shows who has the real power and influnce in this administration.

I've never had any doubts that bush was a front for the real power brokers in the white house and that McCain would be the same.
