Dick Cheney hates whales, too

Seems Dick Cheney's backdoor bullying knows no bounds. His office is stopping the implementation of regulations to reduce ship speeds near ports to protect right whales, the most endangered of all whales. The scientists are blowing the whistle:

While I appreciate the value of vigorous scientific debate, I question why White House economic advisors are apparently conducting their own research on right whales and why the Vice President's staff is challenging the conclusions of the government's scientific experts. The appearance is that the White House rejects the conclusions of its own scientists and peer-reviewed scientific studies because it does not like the policy implications of the data. This is not how the review process is supposed to work.
