Former Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Christine Todd Whitman went before a House subcommittee Monday to testify about the EPA's reports on the air quality of Lower Manhattan in the aftermath of 9/11, reports which have come under extreme criticism for apparent contradictions and questionable revisions by the White House. Whitman seemed to rest contentedly however on the reassurances she pushed at the time, despite the number of workers and residents that have grown sick and dying in the ensuing years.
