   Come off it Phil, he's a lawyer, he knows better than to trust 
 statements given out-of-hand.  He would have had good reason to 
 suspect that necessary testing could not have been done or 
 completed when he made his statements parroting the EPA line. 
  
  Oh well, the people who believed him now need to know that 
 they've been subjected to health hazards needlessly.  All that 
 remains is for such health problems to materialize and they'll 
 have the Ex Mayor to curse and maybe even the city to sue for 
 needlessly and negligently exposing them to such dangers. 
  
   Either way you cut the cake it is not a good thing for either 
 Bush or Rudy.  They have both done the public a great disservice.
