administration's heavy handed injection of a far right wing ideology
into scientific research.
You still have not addressed the facts in the document.
Ideologues in review panels. Censoring of congressional reports.
Removal of data from web sites. Political litmus tests for
appointments to NIH and FDA panels. Ordering the EPA to censor air
quality data immediately post 9/11. Appointment of completely
unqualified people to important scientific panels.
and those are just a few.
Problem addressing the issues perhaps. Stop with the red herring and
address the issue.
