EPA's Whitman submits resignation letter
Topic: Current Events 6:06 am EDT, May 22, 2003

] Christie Whitman, sometimes cast as a lone voice on Bush
] environmental matters, announced Wednesday she will soon
] step down as administrator of the Environmental
] Protection Agency.
]
] In her resignation letter posted on the EPA's Web site,
] the former New Jersey governor cited a desire to spend
] more time with her family. Her resignation will be
] effective June 27.
]
] "I am proud of the work this agency has done and of the
] contributions it has made to the success of your
] administration," Whitman, 56, said in a letter addressed
] to President Bush and dated May 20. "... It has been a
] true honor to be able to lead this agency as it worked to
] implement the innovative, effective environmental
] policies to which you are so clearly committed." (Text of
] letter)
]
] Whitman is the most prominent woman to leave the
] administration.
]
] In a statement, Bush praised Whitman, saying she "served
] my administration exceptionally well."
]
] Environmentalists have long suggested Whitman was unhappy
] with the White House over several key environmental
] policies, but she has steadfastly said she was happy in
] her work.

SUUUURE she wants to spend more time with her family. Uh huh. Why is it that is ALWAYS the #1 excuse sighted when someone unexpectedly steps down from a post? /me thinks the truth is she just cant head an agency called the Environmental Protection Agency in an administration with such a shady environmental track record.
