Think Progress notes that the Union of Concerned Scientists have issued a report that says some 60% of the staff scientists at the Environmental Protection Agency have experienced at least one instance of political interference over the last five years from Bushies. Some of the examples include use of selective or incomplete data, misrepresentation of scientists' findings, and inability to openly express concerns. Undoubtedly, a review of other Federal agencies involved in scientific or medical studies would disclose similar abuses of power.
The sheer lawless arrogance of this Assministration is breathtaking. Playing with the health and wellbeing of American citizens to push a rightwing political agenda is unforgiveable.
