Oil Spill Panel: White House Blocked Federal Scientists From Releasing Worst-Case Scenario For Gulf Disaster

It's not that Americans have any less of an attention span than other nationalities; it's that it's news when it happens.  The media covers events as they take place, and the immediate reaction.  After that, the media's attention gets directed to what's news that day.

Today is when this news came to light, and if it's not dealt with now, if it's put off, you know what happens when it's brought up weeks/months/years down the line: "Oh that's old news, it's been talked about already."

I find it interesting that emmanuel goldstein says, "The Dems aren't going to say anything bad about this...too close to election time".

Why would the Democrats say anything bad about this at any time?  This is their bad.  You would think, however, that Republicans would be talking about this.  Republican politicians, not their voters online, but Republicans running for office.  

If anyone ever wanted any proof that there's not a hair's lick of difference between Republicans and the DLC-controlled Democratic Party, that they both work for Big Oil and other transnatinal corporations, this is it.   

If anybody is going to a Republican or Democratic candidate's election event in the coming weeks, ask both how they feel about Obama's blocking NOAA's report, paid for with tax dollars.  It might make for some interesting television news that has more relevance to the election coverage we're getting now (all Christine O'Donnell & Sharon Angle, all the time -- No substance, just witchcraft and teabaggers).
