It's one of those things I should have remembered from The West Wing, if from nowhere else. If a sitting President lets a bill sent to him by Congress go for more than ten days without signing it, it's considered a veto. The kicker is that it has to happen when Congress is adjourned, not when it's in session. Think back to last week and the fuss about the signing of the Military Commissions Act. Bush held onto that bill for about two weeks before signing it.

Scientific Method versus Political Method: The US administration and its interpretation of the events of 9/11

According to these prominent scientists, the US administration is also creating its own “scientific reality”. As defined, this is not science—it is the political method. It is another form of “creating our own reality”. Therefore we must conclude that the credibility of the US administration is lacking if it will distort science to support “policy goals”. This statement by prominent scientists is a damning blow to the scientific credibility of the US administration if it considers policy goals more important than scientific results. If the US government is censoring scientists, then we simply can not trust any single report that they release. Censorship of science is a way to ignore evidence and is therefore not science! It is the political method in action.
