A government scientist, politically appointed, on the government payroll, sponsored by Al Gore (when he was handing out grant money as the Vice President), claims: "Interference with communication of science to the public has been greater during the current administration than at any time in my career." Dr. James Hansen, a Democrat and a believer of the mythical global warming, believes that the Bush administration has no right to forge government policy. Dr. Hansen continues, "the problem stems from the fact that public affairs offices at the headquarters level of America's science agencies are headed by political appointees."

Well DUH... what rock have you just come out from under Dr. Hansen? Your pal, Mr. "I invented the internet" Gore has been doing this forever. And so has every president and vice president since the dawn of time. Hansen invoked the names of America's Founding Fathers, including Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson, and Bill Clinton as he continued his assault on the Bush administration.

Clearly, in a haze of some strange kind, Dr. Hansen predicts the end of the world in ten years because George Bush is causing the earth to boil away.

"I think we have a very brief window of opportunity to deal with climate change ... no longer than a decade, at the most," he said. After that... we're all boiled potatoes and it's all because of George Bush.
