The Mine and Health Safety Administrator who led the slow and incompetent rescue attempts when the Crandall Canyon Mine collapsed?

His previous record includes running the most unsafe mines in the country - with more than twice the normal accident and fatality rate. Well, then, how did he get the job of running mine safety for the whole country?

Bush personally appointed him, end-running the review procedure after the Senate rejected him twice on the grounds of incompetence.
