"I don't think Hansen has ever really been censored," said Brown, a career civil servant with over 20 years' service at NASA. "We at public affairs have been very supportive of all our scientists. [Hansen] has always been welcome to talk about this data. I mean, we encourage our scientists to talk about the data. That is what they get paid to do."

Hansen's subsequent complaints to the media that he was being censored prompted an incredulous reaction at a NASA public affairs staff meeting, Deutsch said. "Someone said James Hansen is making claims of political censorship. And everyone in the meeting just groaned -- groaned, like 'What a joke,'" Deutsch said.

The hilarity of that graduation reference, like, I did stay at a holiday inn... What is with these tight asses, don't they see it?

""I had more credits than are required to graduate, but I needed one math class," Deutsch said, noting that he participated in the class of 2004's graduation ceremony."

Typical hand waving that the administration and its appointees go through. The only way he could have participated in the ceremony would be to sit in the audience. The number of credits he had accumulated in excess isn't relevant if he didn't fulfill the core requirements.


Funny, if he only needed one class, you'd think he'd go for it. Of course, it was CNS who reviewed his transcript. Given their lack of journalistic integrity, that transcript could have said anything.
