Mining Safety Czar Another Bush Recess Appointment

Three of the nine rescue workers atttempting to get to the six miners trapped in a Crandall Canyon, Utah mine that collapsed 11 days ago have died from injuries sustained in another cave-in during the rescue attempt.

Would it surprise you that mining deaths have increased dramatically during the Bush administration? Me neither.

Oh, one more thing: Watch Keith Olbermann's report regarding the mine disaster and Richard Stickler, the Bush recess appointee for mine safety. I wonder why the former coal company executive had to be appointed during a Congressional recess?... hmmm...
