pretty much confirms what should have been at least the subject of a Congressional investigation long ago. When it is far too late then it will be popular to discuss the head-slapping "of course. we coulda, shoulda known". The suppression of science is something- like massive election fraud- that Bush has actually done the service of bringing to light, but it is systemic like almost everything else, not just a matter of the mad villains at the top of the manure pile. That goes for every aspect of human existence and therefore paints a picture of a steady push toward massive extinction and catastrophe.
It is also interesting to note the catastrophic progress of equally shattering hopeful evolution like DNA control, high tech, and hopefully energy breakthroughs which it appears right now haven't a chance of affecting the negative results of a suicidal civilization that is making a world that humanity cannot survive in. self-obsolescence is the remarkably unique choice of intelligent species as compared to the simpler problems of species that eat themselves out of an environment(which is not left out of our Kevorkian future formula either).
I also suspect that the warped evil idiots at the top know very well what is heading down the pike and are thinking of castling themselves in comfort after a long haul of controlling the slaughterhouse and reaping the world's resources, the quicker the better. Bush shutting off the NASA satellites is a deliberate attempt to keep the herd blinded and puts the absolute lie to his "beliefs" in the unreality of climate change. It is all of a piece and those hoping to find sufficient brave souls in each of the systemically, deadly corrupted human institutions to redeem each one the critical flaws, the multiple Achilles' heels, the momentum toward the cliff have only to think of the simple math. You have to stop each and every one of these failings to succeed. Each failure will cost human civilization and lives in massive rapidly approaching losses. And war or capitalism or material consumption or enforced ignorance is a heavy foot on the gas pedal toward doom. No wonder it is a blatant kakistocracy with the best having an uphill struggle to get to the stage where they can begin dodging bullets.
