The Bush Administration launches a new war

@ 04:09 PM (23 months, 2 days ago)

The Bush Administration has launched a new war, and no troops are required for this one.

Their latest war is against science.

According to the journal Nature, BushCo. has blocked the release of a report that says global warming is contributing to the frequency and strength of hurricanes.

This is clearly an Administration that doesn't believe in science; doesn't believe in evidence.

For example, in 2004 it came to light that the White House edited a Department of Health and Human Services Report on racial disparities in health care.  They revised it to make it LESS critical of the racial imbalances in health care, than the original report.
