60 Minutes NOW: James Hanson on Global Warming

[Hissyspit]

He's the one who says 10 years until tipping point on global warming.

Says White House restrictions are blocking the message.

[Maddy McCall]

1. I wish that he would abandon NASA and start his own foundation....

for his work. He'd be supported widely by Democrats and Republicans alike.

Then he's be unimpeded in his desire to tell the truth.

I can't believe that a NASA rep is sitting in on all interviews he does. Did you see the release that the WHITE HOUSE had edited?

"science not a significant tool"

[Maddy McCall]

2. Lawyer/oil industry lobbyist is the one who edits all climate reports...

Phil Cooney.

UNfuckingbelievable.

[Amonester]

16. How much lower can they go? (There R no lows they can't go.)

~snip~
Asked who the chief of staff is, Piltz says, "Phil Cooney."

Piltz says Cooney is not a scientist. "He's a lawyer. He was a lobbyist for the American Petroleum Institute, before going into the White House," he says. :puke:

Rewriting The Science :argh:

What the ****? Thanks to this evil maladministration, taxpayers have to pay this (another one...) crook's salary?
:wtf:

[Duppers]

5. disagree

He should stay there and do exactly what he's doing: going public with this censorship. Let's see the WH try to fire his ass now. The bastards.

[Flubadubya]

7. They may not fire him...

he might just end up on an unfortunate small plane trip. Don't put it past these barbarians! :grr:

[Mr_Jefferson_24]

6. Stickin' it to the WH...Man does BushCo look bad! nt.

[tinfoilinfor2005]

3. Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes!!

I hope that by some fluke, every single person in america hears this tonight.

[Hissyspit]

9. Basketball was its lead-in, so maybe!

[babylonsister]

4. Unreal; another topic touched by the admin that they

blatantly want to downgrade/turn to crap. What's wrong with the truth, and screw the corporatists?

Edit to add: this proves their allegiance to Americans and the rest of the world.

[Duppers]

8. this is how they handled intel on Iraq too.

Thanks for your post PH.

[Ksec]

10. So how soon before we fire his ass ?

All this evidence, all these stories, like this , showing a clear attempt to hide the truth from the people....Just what is it going to take before the people realize theyve got a freakin monster in the WH? Its beyond bizarre at this point.

[tinfoilinfor2005]

11. And our democratic representatives

just don't really see any reason to censure or impeach bush JUST YET. Yes, better to wait until our planet no longer exists.

[ChiciB1]

14. How Do You Impeach An Administration???

You do realize that if we get rid of The Idiot, we still have The Weasel with the gun hanging around don't you??

The really really scary thing is, they have already done so much damage and unfortunately, there's so much more we don't even KNOW about yet!

All those "classified" documents, all the secrecy and all the absolute refusal to hand over or divulge pertinent information even when anyone asks, or demands makes it all too clear. And to think that there are still people out there who totally support them is all the more disturbing!

What good will all their money do them, when you can't take a decent breath??

[roguevalley]

12. I say sooner. But then, all I have is a window. SIGH! I wish it were

different but I think we're in big, big trouble. I remember in 1970 Jacques Cousteau saying the ocean only had about 20 years before it died.

[slaveplanet]

13. That first story about the NYC Stazi

Was total propaganda. full of lies
Kelly was implying that the Feds were too slow and he made it seem that the program was set up in spite of them.

60 minutes went on to say that the 1 billion dollar program was MOSTLY funded by NYC.

Well 51% qualifies as mostly, and believe me, the Feds are totally on board with matching funds, and this crap is not limited to NYC...the plan is to have ever big city saddled with these big brother units and their "informer" networks to rule over every aspect of civilian life.

[Coexist]

15. I missed it -is this the right transcript?

17. I don't understand - these repukes live on this planet too.

What makes them think they are going to be immune from Mother Nature's wrath?

Sick.
