Slashdot Mirror
Politicizing Science
An anonymous reader writes: "The Washington Post has a story about the government's efforts to remove independent scientific review boards and replace them with officials that match the views of administration. This includes careless elimination of life-saving safety regulations in gene-therapy to help specific business interests and hiring based on political views such as stem cell research and cloning. Is this wrong? Or do those with power get to do whatever they want?"
Damn, I wish I even looked at the article so I could say something more insightful.

Did this post have a point aside from bashing the President?
Erm. No. Sorry.
Oh, the poster forgot, OnTopic Humour is not permitted in this time of National Emergency(TM) because it is Critical of the President.
A Re-Education team will be arriving to inject this Terrorist with an appropriate amount of good old Ignorant-Myopic-American-Jingoism(TM) in short order.
In closing, Fuck GWB, he is the saddest leader your nation has ever had - i dont where exactly the blame lies, but you Yanks got what you deserve I 'spose.
oh, btw: This is ontopic (Bush's position on Independent Science and people's support/disapproval).. maybe a flame, but I prefer the term "Passionate".
further, ive got lots of karma, ill repost this +2 over and over and over - i dont care if it offends your present desire to destroy all discourse critical of your current Plutocratic Leader.
This post deserves an off-mod no more than the parent deserved a +1 insightful.
