The Republican War on Science
by Chris Mooney


America has long prided itself on its dynamic industrial and
scientific innovation. We boasted of our investment in research to
produce new technology, products and medical breakthroughs, because we
were a country always moving forward. Born of a revolution that
rejected the stultifying constraints of Monarchist governments, we
were unleashed to invent a future without constraints.

So historians, in a few years, may look back on the era of right wing
Republican rule and wonder how we became saddled with a government
that is intent on moving the nation backwards instead of forwards.
It's as if you were a passenger in a car speeding down the expressway
at 60 miles per hour and suddenly the driver threw the gear into
reverse.

The technological pride this country had is dwindling. Not only from this
administration, but from companies moving it out to foreign countries, and a
weakened higher education system because we value popstars, celebrities and
athletes much more than engineers and scientists.

If you scan Chris C. Mooney's long list of Left-wing liberal "progressive"
propaganda you will see his agenda:

"Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence."

That oft-quoted statement from Carl Sagan captures the essence of the
scientific approach to knowledge. Before an idea can achieve the revered
status of "theory," it must survive round after round of skeptical
criticism.

The evidence supporting the existence of a partisan War on Science will
never measure up to the Sagan criterion.

What does measure up is the evidence showing Chris C. Mooney's "Progressive"
agenda.

Chris C. Mooney is Washington correspondent for Seed magazine and a senior
correspondent for the American Prospect.

The American Prospect, Inc. "We incubate, train, and mentor young
'progressive' journalists," the site also says, "through our prestigious
writing fellows program."

--- "Progressive" is a propaganda code word for Socialist. ---

Online The American Prospect, Inc. operates not only a digital version of
its magazine and special reports but also a "public policy resource" of
links coordinating and integrating it with at least 140 other activist
"progressive" groups and web sites.

The American Prospect, Inc. Not-for-profit, tax-exempt organization that
operates The American Prospect Magazine

Biggest funders include foundations controlled by Bill Moyers and George
Soros

Put out at least one publication without informing readers its content was
bought and paid for by a foundation to promote legislation

Its web project Moving Ideas promotes other "progressive" groups funded by
foundations controlled by Bill Moyers and George Soros

The American Prospect apparently takes editorial dictation from its leftwing
sugar daddies not only about what it publishes but also where it publishes.

If one wants the big picture one needs to be open to all points of
view.

Sadly, you are correct. In the community I live in, you can't swing a
dead cat without hitting an Indian, here as doctors, engineers and
programmers.

Nothing against Indians at all -- it just brings into focus the failure
of the American educational system...
