'The Republican War on Science' sticks Bush for bending the facts."<BR/>Looks like 2 new great books but Chris Mooney, a journalist, goes deep into this right wing fundamentalist Christian jihad -uh oh, that word might put me on the surveillance list if I'm not already on it --brings back memories.<BR/><BR/>This is what the reviewer writes:<BR/>He charges Bush and other conservative Republicans with "science abuse."<BR/><BR/>In "politicized fights involving science, it is rare to find liberals entirely innocent of abuses," Mooney asserts. "But they are almost never as guilty as the Right." By the "Right,"Mooney means the powerful alliance of the conservative Christians who seek to influence policies on abortion, stem cells, sexual conduct and the teaching of evolution -- and advocates of free enterprise who attempt to minimize regulations that cut into corporate profits. <BR/><BR/>The reviews should be on-line tomorrow. Very interesting how their MO crosses all depts. and the ramifications of their scientific engineering at ed.<BR/><BR/>It all fits together so neatly.<BR/><BR/>JudyJudy Rabinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02468547316274739687noreply@blogger.com
