Exxon Oil Stains White House

For years, I’ve researched the relationship between the ExxonMobil corporation and the Bush administration, and in recent weeks, I’ve seen the world recognize what I have learned during these years: they’re practically one and the same.
Reports from the New York Times, Washington Post and Wall Street Journal have exposed an in-depth connection between the Bush administration and ExxonMobil. Revelations include Exxon’s influence of America’s policy on global warming and a leading administration staffer's alteration of scientific documents - who is now working directly for ExxonMobil.
Now we’ve learned that Exxon’s influence on the Bush administration is extending to America’s international policies. Next week, world leaders from the eight major industrialized nations (G8), including President Bush and Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin, will meet to discuss the world's most serious issues, including global warming.
But Bush administration officials, with help from their friends at ExxonMobil, have been working for months to weaken a major global warming proposal that will be considered during the G8 Summit.
It’s time to cut the umbilical cord of oil feeding American politics and the future of our planet.
Take Action! Tell Bush it’s time to wash his hands of Exxon oil.
