Bushies Distorted Climate Data

The Inspector General for NASA has confirmed allegations that Bush political appointees at NASA systematically distorted and downplayed evidence collected by scientists at that agency of climate change. NASA's IG reports that over at least a two year period, political appointees in the agency's public affairs office "managed the topic of climate change in a manner that reduced, marginalized or mischaracterized climate change science made available to the general public."

Every day that we fail to take action to mitigate the damage done to our environment by greenhouse gases and other human factors, we hand an increasingly difficult task to our children and grandchildren. Another Bushit legacy for future generations.
