NASA did not change its mission statement. The conservative Bush administration changed it in secret last February to discourage scientists from talking about global warming or doing further studies on it. The bad news is just now making its way through NASA as this is the beginning of their new budget cycle.

As to your question: why does Bush hate the Earth?
The answer may lie in a photo taken at the “lying in state” of John Paul II. It is a picture of W, Laura, Bush, Sr., and Clinton. The picture appeared in the New York Post, the New York Daily News and possibly the New York Times. I don’t even think the Bushes were aware of the photo at the time but I am sure they are now. Their eyes were glowing yellow. Completely. The Daily News had teh color photo and the Post had it in black and white. I believe the photo was either Reuters or Associated Press.
Who are the “Bushes”?
Couldn’t see clinton’s eyes because he was bending down getting something. All other individuals in the picture were with normal eyes.
Maybe this explains some of the awful things and the weird things happening in this country and the world these individuals have “touched”.

I think this fits perfectly inline with the overall policies of the current Bush Administration. One only has to take a cursory look at what they have done to the EPA during the last five years to see that.
Besides, It’s hard to care about protecting Earth when you’re trying to start the Apocalypse. Jesus will take care of things from there, so we won’t have to worry about protecting the precious blue jewel we call home.

It’s clear that the Neocons are feeding off the apocalyptic Christians, the Armageddonites, and the Jack Van Impe crowd and believe that a precurser to the return of Jesus is destruction of the planet. They have therefore embraced death and destruction. This has practically become a new religion and of course the environmentalists, truthseekers, and patriots who believe in preserving borders, clean air and water, freedom at home, constitutionalism, and common sense diplomacy are the “non believers” and therefore the enemy. This is the fertile matrix of evil feeding on ignorance, cowardice, and lies. There are 2 possible self-fulfilling prophecies here: The first is of course WWIII and environmental destruction. The second would be that THESE are the people who may get “left behind” politically, spiritually, and even mabe physically.
