If Science is Uncomfortable--DELETE IT!

Read this Associated Press news item written yesterday regarding an action taken by our Bush administration as posted in Forbes.com

WASHINGTON -
The White House severely edited congressional testimony given Tuesday by the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on the impact of climate change on health, removing specific scientific references to potential health risks, according to two sources familiar with the documents.


I feel that there is a certain guideline in our govenment's behavior regarding science. If it doesn't fit with a particular moral or political end, then delete it. And the government can't even give an excuse that the information deleted was a high national security risk. ..Maurice.
