Comments on: White House Slashed CDC Warming Report

Administration Denies It 'Watered Down' Director's Congressional Testimony

Take Bush''s approval rating and multiply by 3. Then, you get to Clinton''s approval rating right after impeachment. This story is just another reason why Bush is so hated by the majority of Americans.

The White House significantly edited testimony prepared for a Senate hearing on the impact of climate change on health, deleting key portions citing diseases that could flourish in a warmer climate, documents obtained by The Associated Press showed Wednesday.

Does anyone else not see that this is NOT science?Posted by s1ckd09 at 03:51 PM : Oct 24, 2007

Isn''t hypothosis and theory an essential element of science?

What are medical studies if not comparative analysis and weather, if not modeling and prediction.

How many messangers must be slaughtered before the message is allowed to get through?

You do know that the Big Bang is theory right, and that Creationism has even less proof. :)

And yet, in 7 years they haven''t done a single thing that''s impeachable? Is there no one representing the American people in congress?

This is what we have RIGHT NOW - the majority are Republican and this report comes out yearly by the Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington.

4 Democrats in there and the rest are Republican....you want 4 more years of that?

God told George to essentially withhold information from the American public. God tells him to do that all the time.

[dumbfounded5]

Name one thing this Administration has done on the up and up and correctly. Anybody? Anybody?

[cdfoxtrot]

It''s hard to believe the Bush-Cheney White House would manipulate and parse objective information, to further their own ideological agenda. They have far too much integrity. Don''t they?

[goldesprit]

Waiting for this administration to simply do all it wants to screw the world in the years leading to the next election is not leadership folks.

The Democrats had better USE the power they currently have (or lose it), instead of playing safe political games in the hope of attaining, or retaining their collective seats in office. They are beginning to convince the American voters that there may be less difference between them and the Republicans--because they won''t stand for the difference they claim to have-- BY ACTING TO IMPEACH TOP MEMBERS OF THE ADMINISTRATION(INCLUDING BUSH AND CHENY).

Actions speak louder, Democrats. Lets see a little spine, instead of a DANGEROUS WAITING GAME.

THAT IS NOT WHAT WE ELECT YOU FOR.

well really, whats new?

They have done that with every document that they''ve ordered to let them mess with before release. Including the Surgeon General''s reporting. EPA reports, CIA reports. That was the worst one. They actually got a CIA report on Iraq from covert forces that were sent in as Special Ops with specialists in chemical/biological weapons and weaponized radioactive materials. The report was given 1 month before Bush moved on Iraq but the White house shelved it and refused to let anyone read it including Congress and the relevant committees.
same old bush admin regardless of who is working there.
