Nord was never against budget increases for the CPSC, she was against the regulations that surrounded those additional funds knowing how harmful those regulations are. She is an unusual department head who puts the best interests of others ahead of her own. With all due respect, I would not expect you to admit how your misquoting a document does indeed make a difference. And finally, thank you for continuing to visit all the CPSIA blogs that actually explain how this poorly written law continues to cause real harm to real people. Yes, real people ... not those who hide behind fake names.Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14009259962873743482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7397026455216371761.post-65791062839057225262009-04-03T12:18:00.000-05:002009-04-03T12:18:00.000-05:00Interesting that the CPSC has "toxicologists&...Interesting that the CPSC has "toxicologists" doubling up their duties with PR these days. Nancy Nord really should have accepted Congress's offer to double her budget. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/10/30/washington/30consumer.html?_r=1&scp=1&sq=Bigger%20Budget?%20No,%20Responds%20Safety%20Agency%20&st=cse Regardless, with all due respect, your "procedure/law" remark sounds like a distinction without a difference. The law requires that the CPSC implement the law--which includes "procedures." Finally, thanks so much for reading ThePopTort.
