Listening to Prof Hansen and author Mark Bowen on'Democracy Now' this a.m.I have to say,
Good for you Prof.Hansen on NOT kow-towing to politicians!!!
Coming from a family of some scientists myself I am APPALLED that The White House top 'kabal'crones should DARE TO SUGGEST that Science should align itself to THEIR POLICIES!!!!
Excuse me,but b******t to you,within the coal and oil KABAL!

NASA scientists who are not paid by one political party,speak out to protect and maintain the symbiosis between man and planet,because they understand that the planet CAN survive/mutate without US, but we CANNOT survive without the planet and it's protective atmosphere.
We can see the pressure THE SCIENTISTS are under,to censor the PUBLIC TRUTH about Climate Change/Global warming and our OVERLY 'GENEROUS' human contribution to it. LOL!
I look forward to seeing ALL apolitical scientists say
"ENOUGH! No politicians will SILENCE OR CENSOR the science of TRUTH!"
No NASA science reports need to be vetted first by The(black,soot covered)White House!!!
That's about as useful as the child ordering around THE PARENT!

'UNEMBEDDED'scientists work tirelessly FOR us,the people,to make what we have LAST LONGER.They remind us of our FINITE-NESS!
They are the voice of unbought common-sense and reason. Their goals are for long term public benefit.They remind us of our humble place in the food chain.

'EMBEDDED' politicians work DESPITE the people,for the short-term personal PROFIT!
They constantly try to brainwash us that what we have,on this planet is INFINITE!
Which is fantasy HOGWASH,and as good little pigs,many of us blindly wallow in that hogwash!
If any politician is worthy and HONOURABLE enough toward their voters and the country,then he/she WOULD MAKE THE POLICY FIT THE SCIENCE! And not visa versa!
No independant Scientists should EVER give way to DEPENDANT politicians and they don't have to kow-tow to censorship if it stifles the PUBLIC TRUTH.
Just resign and work for BETTER people!
Give those politicians,who would GAG you, a tough fight!
THE CORPORATE POLICIES MUST FIT THE INDEPENDANT SCIENCE!
Keep giving 'em hell Hansen! We are behind you,because you speak for OUR HOME!
Perhaps INSTEAD of a "White" House,we need a GREEN House!
