- angusm, on 07/09/2008, -5/+28The scary thought is that despite all the stories about the administration suppressing or redacting scientific testimony for political purposes, despite everything we've learned about their sponsorship of kidnapping, torture and intrusive surveillance, and despite all the secret deals and no-bid contracts that have come to light, we're still probably only seeing the tip of the iceberg.
It's quite likely that we may never know the full extent of what they've got up to during their term of office. If it starts to look like Obama might win, the shredders are going to be running white-hot for the last three months of the Bush presidency, as Team Cheney attempts to bury the evidence. - granolajoe, on 07/09/2008, -7/+28I am Jack's complete lack of surprise.
- AHIGHERGOD, on 07/09/2008, -5/+13I am going to sit right ***** here and do nothing about it.
- inactive, on 07/09/2008, -3/+9And this has exactly what to do with the topic? Oh yeah absolutely nothing. ***** troll.
- an0nymous, on 07/09/2008, -3/+9Firstly, anyone who appends the suffix "-tard" to any political affiliation is pretty much an *****. I have yet to see an exception to this rule.
Secondly, "leadership" as you describe is done from principle. I am curious how you think that minimizing scientific evidence detailing the public health challenges arising from global warming is in the public interest.
Go ahead.
Back up your words. - psion01, on 07/09/2008, -0/+3I tend to agree with you ... or at least I tend to think /anthropogenic/ global warming is overstated and used by a variety of groups to push their own agendas. But I do NOT like the idea of this or any other administration tampering with the testimony of scientific experts, regardless of whether they are right or wrong. The proper way to respond to an expert with whom you disagree is with informed rebuttal, not a muzzle.
- Jpardue, on 07/09/2008, -0/+3I have actually written my senators, and district representatives, I have been a member of Young Democrats of America since high school, Served as Vice President of YDOA in college, I have a degree in political science, have volunteered as a staff supporter for candidates, and I have voted in every election since I was 18.
So I believe you have just been owned... - inactive, on 07/09/2008, -5/+8HANG'EM!

White House spokeswoman demands apology from Calif. lawmaker - inactive, on 07/09/2008, -1/+3What most people should focus less on, is global warming. We should pay FAR more attention on breathing cleaner air and drinking cleaner water. You clean up the basic needs of citizens and the whole global warming thing takes care of itself.
- SmokinOkie, on 07/09/2008, -1/+3You got my vote brother! Both the dems and repubs are nothing more than different sides of the same coin. When will the politicians stop playing politics with our country? When we stop them.
- kolobcreek, on 07/10/2008, -0/+2You should be worried that its legal for them to change the testimony at all. Any senator can go back and change their testimony. Maybe we take the bottle of whiteout from all the senators before we go after the VP? Or do you only want your senators to be able to edit history?
- Alucard66, on 07/09/2008, -0/+2thank god for economics making everything that you said an essential impossibility, history is a great teacher and shows us that before things get way too much worse everyone will grab their gun and start shooting the hell out of the government/whatever and make a new one. only thing that scares me is the internet making people vent online instead of actually doing anything...
- SpinningHead, on 07/09/2008, -1/+3Oh of course. Why let facts get in the way of decision-making. Better yet, why let tax payers have access to the science that they paid for. Good job laying out the neocon mind set for all to see.
- STPZ, on 07/09/2008, -5/+7Just another example of the administrations way of discovering the "facts"
- BeefBaron, on 07/09/2008, -0/+2Revising the present; WE'LL DO IT LIVE.
- beauley, on 07/10/2008, -0/+1The news heard everywhere these days mentions "Global Warming", sometimes more than once per telecast. Our top environmental scientists are in agreement that the earth is experiencing a warming period. Are they forgetting a key point ?

Is Global Warming, or Global Pollution the Issue? - Jpardue, on 07/09/2008, -9/+10When is America going to wake up..... So much for a country of the people for the people and by the people...
- inactive, on 07/10/2008, -0/+1Whiny kids want CAKE more CAKE CAKE CAKE
- polychrome, on 07/09/2008, -4/+5Denial at its finest.
- ginestony, on 07/10/2008, -0/+1at this point, after all we've seen wrong with this administration, do we really think anything can touch them? I don't get it. How can they be so blatantly corrupt and still get away with it?
- Alucard66, on 07/09/2008, -1/+2politicians will NEVER stop playing politics with our country, pretty much by definition. Minimizing the effects is something reachable though. Also while you say dems and repubs are two sides of the same coin last dem in office gave us a surplus, which would be kinda nice considering our huge ass debt so atleast that would be a ton better and a very large step, for me anyways, toward setting our country right. Other main problem is that we're a sole super power meaning our days are numbered but oh well.
- inactive, on 07/10/2008, -0/+1Wow, you said it remarkably *correct*. Compliments.
- an0nymous, on 07/09/2008, -4/+5I am Jack's rage.
- ginestony, on 07/10/2008, -0/+1what exactly are they rapping about? Money and hoes?
- Dibou, on 07/09/2008, -1/+2Has there ever been a government anywhere in the world that hasn't edited reports in some way? I'm not talking making paragraphs, but talking about deciding what information to put in and what to take out?
Or, do you think Al Gore edited his film "Inconvenient Truth" in any way, or did he just get some film footage of various experts and put it ALL in his film raw?
Before all of you give your knee-jerk panic reaction, if you read carefully you'll see that the article isn't criticizing the fact that Cheney did editing, because that is part of his job, along with part of the job of every single member of Congress. No, what they are whining about is WHAT he edited. They don't agree with Cheney on content and so are blowing it out of proportion. Maybe they are counting on people to think that the very fact that Cheney is editing testimony is a crime or something. - dafragsta, on 07/10/2008, -0/+1If there was no internet, there would be no awareness of these things in great detail. The internet is the lightswitch that makes the cockroaches scatter.
- dafragsta, on 07/10/2008, -0/+1What are you doing differently and how much actual effect will that have?
- STPZ, on 07/09/2008, -1/+2Time to play CYA, hell they've been doing it all along
- beauley, on 07/10/2008, -0/+1With all due respect to former Vice-President Al Gore, given his many years of dedication and his recently awarded Pulitzer Prize for his work on making the world aware of “Global Warming” and though still shrouded in some controversy, our even greater world problem is “Global Pollution”.

Al Gore's Decree on Global Warming is Not Our Only Crisis - unklesam666, on 07/09/2008, -1/+2dont yalls think that some kind of news would eventually - even if accidentally - leak out about something kind-hearted, decent or socially beneficial from the bush/cheney administration?
- VitriolAndAngst, on 07/10/2008, -0/+1You just read a story saying that the administration was covering up research indicating Anthropogenic Global Warming.... and this is your reaction?
Why would they fudge the data if there were none indicating it was going on? - SpinningHead, on 07/09/2008, -2/+3multi-billion dollar business? So, I guess we can stop subsidizing Exxon and tell them to get into this booming market that will prevent kids from getting asthma due to huffing pollution all day.
- VitriolAndAngst, on 07/10/2008, -0/+1What a cop out.
The bad guys like BushCo get away with it, when people say; "they are all corrupt."
It is work to find out who is doing things right. But if you don't, you punish them all and reward them all in equal measure. - rustintable, on 07/09/2008, -1/+1well I have done lots since finding out about such things from this (open to all(including yourself)) website.
- Crakecake, on 07/09/2008, -5/+5'Crimes against humanity' you say? How about Cheney's 'crimes against terrestrial life'? Hah! Screw you Hitler and Stalin!
- rhabd0mancer, on 07/09/2008, -3/+3NASA: 2007 was tied for the second warmest year on record.
http://www.giss.nasa.gov/research/news/20080116/
You need to get your facts straight, moron. - RizzoFrank, on 07/09/2008, -0/+0pics or it didn't happen.
- magus_melchior, on 07/10/2008, -1/+1That confirms my suspicion that Cheney wanted to be Dick Nixon at the height of his power (complete with fingers in every pie), and without the threat of impeachment from Congress. He'd be a fascist dictator, but I suspect he doesn't have the cojones to blow away Bush and declare martial law.
- magus_melchior, on 07/10/2008, -1/+1The last Democrat in office presided over the Internet boom, and didn't pursue wars of aggression that lasted well over 3 years.
The last Democrat also pardoned a pile of Democrats in his last day of office. They weren't innocent.
The last Democrat also couldn't do jack to give us a surplus, other than work with Congress to balance the budget.
American politics is like a couple of high school thugs playing tag-team wrestling with you. While one of them has your attention, the other gives you an atomic wedgie. - EEdesigner, on 07/10/2008, -0/+0Could be that Cheney actually had some real scientists working there. Evidently, the MSM doesn't.
- nickb827, on 07/10/2008, -0/+0I logged on just to digg you up. Did you already have that prepared or did you find all of the links on the spot?
- AddiX, on 07/10/2008, -0/+0i dugg it, so i made a difference!
- mstachiw, on 07/09/2008, -3/+2Old... i'm surprised this resurfaced. I guess now everyone's digging all the dirt us informed people knew during the period the rest of America was still giving the Bush administration a high approval rating.
Where was most the media when this was unfolding? Oh yeah they were playing it safe and giving us masturbatory fluff news. Jerks, - psykid24, on 07/10/2008, -1/+0You think Cheney has ever seen fight club?
- inactive, on 07/09/2008, -4/+3global warming man made? ***** off.
the goverment is rapping our freedoms, wtf? - rustintable, on 07/09/2008, -1/+0So lets get started.
I have. there are a million ways to take matters into your own hands. Obama's suggestion of volunteering is a good start.
Personally I am trying technological solutions. - inactive, on 07/09/2008, -3/+1If the United States of America were a communist country, I would totally agree with you. But it isnt and your argument sounds very weak.
