Leading Scientists Accuse Bush of Politicizing Science
This is from the web site of Democracy Now

Last week, a group of scientists, including 20 Nobel laureates, signed a petition condemning the White House for deliberately and systematically distorting scientific fact in the service of policy goals on the environment, health, biomedical research and nuclear weaponry at home and abroad.
According to the report entitled "Scientific Integrity in Policymaking: An Investigation into the Bush Administration's Misuse of Science," the White House censors and suppresses reports by its own scientists, stacks advisory committees and disbands government panels.
