I don't like the Bush administration but this is
what Republicans do. I don't think you can blame them.
Blame the people who elected them this last time around. If they get
a better government they were right and if they don't then I was
right. I voted and will again.

Subject: [LivRiv] NIH Employees required

This is
a cross-post from the Federation for Behavioral, Psychological and Cognitive
Sciences. The story was picked up by the American Psychological
Association's Division 6 and put on the listserve. This is the first
time that I have seen the people currently in "power" begin to require what is
reminiscent of the "Loyalty Oath" from the McCarthy period. It should be
a BIG red flag. I don't think it matters whether the goals were
"non-controversial" or not. The problem is that it was required at all
and that people felt they had to sign off on the statement. We should probably
be alerting our Congressional delegations. Peace and light, Satori
This email newsletter is sent to officers and
members of the Federation plus interested governmental agency officials, and
is typically sent every Friday. Its goal is to inform researchers in
the field about Federation activities, funding issues, and other relevant
topics that could affect their work.
IN TODAY'S POST: NIH EMPLOYEES MUST SIGN
OFF ON BUSH GOALS
The Washington
Post published an interesting article today on how employees at the National
Institutes of Health were asked to sign a document affirming allegiance to
the Administration's goals. The article states that no other agency
within Health and Human Services was asked to do this. Apparently most
of the goals were non-controversial; however, one section referred to the
employees' willingness to commit to outsourcing jobs to keep costs
down. Some employees were quoted anonymously as well. Read the
full article on this link:
