NASA does what Washington tells them to do. This has included supplying senior management posts for people who's sole qualification is that they campaigned for Bush - and who in turn saw fit to act like a Soviet political officer for Bush policy. (I'm not referring to Mike Griffin) I'd bet good money that the decision to bury the report originated in Washington.
