A NASA scientist who said the Bush administration muzzled him because of his belief in global warming yesterday acknowledged to Congress that he’d done more than 1,400 on-the-job interviews in recent years.
James Hansen, director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies, who argues global warming could be catastrophic, said NASA staffers denied his request to do a National Public Radio interview because they didn’t want his message to get out.
But Republicans told him the hundreds of other interviews he did belie his broad claim he was being silenced.
“We have over 1,400 opportunities that you’ve availed yourself to, and yet you call it, you know, being stifled,” said Rep. Darrell Issa, California Republican.
Chilled! Scientist "Silenced" By Bush Gave 1,500 On-The-Job Media Interviews In Recent Years
Imagine what a Chatty Kathy he'd've been had someone not blown an ill wind chilling dissent at him:
In related news, Lindsey Lohan's, Paris Hilton's, and Britney Spears' pooters all held a joint press conference declaring they had been "made all but invisible'" by Bush Administration thugs.
1400 interviews in the past few years? When does the silly bastard actually do his job?
Mr. Hansen yesterday said the Bush administration threatened him and his orifice if he didn’t actually do some productive work! The type of work for which he had been hired!
Additionally, Mr. Hansen reported,
“It was an oral threat made to an alien in Area 51 and relayed to me via telekenesis,” said Mr. Hansen, who is listed as a senior adviser to Mr. Gore and a prospective suitor for Amanda Marcotte
Additionally,
Citing what he called a “growth of political interference, which is just below VHF on the electro-magnetic spectrum” Mr. Hansen said he was forced to wear his gucci custom fit tin-foil helmet and shorts (briefs) because press officials believed the network to have a liberal bias and “Amanda kinda likes the cruchy sound of tinfoil shorts.”
I hope you’re happy now!! Bastards!
