Drug Help For GOPers

White House Had Drug Officials Appear With GOP Candidates - washingtonpost.com

White House officials arranged for top officials at the Office of National Drug Control Policy to help as many as 18 vulnerable Republican congressmen by making appearances and sometimes announcing new federal grants in the lawmakers' districts in the months leading up to the November 2006 elections, a Democratic lawmaker said yesterday.

Rep. Henry A. Waxman (Calif.), chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, said documents obtained by his panel suggest that the appearances by the drug control officials were part of a larger White House effort to politicize the work of federal agencies that "may be more widespread than previously known..."

I wonder if the taxpayers footed the bill? Oh. wait. Stupid question.

The Drug Detoxification products helped me to secure my job when I had to pass a drug test at my company.
