Some respondents from my previous question didn't know that the Bush administration was anti-science.

Nobel laureates from across the political spectrum (including those who have served in previous Republican administrations) signed this letter.

But I guess you'll dismiss it because, well, you don't need a reason do you?

It's hard to know if he is anti-science, stupid, or just has to say what he does to appease the religious right.

One of my favorite comments by Bush was when he was giving a folksy answer about stem cell research. He said something like "I just don't support any technology that destroys one person's life to make another person's life better.".

I guess he doesn't know that bombs, missiles, guns, and such are products of technology or he doesn't know that we spend more (including his administration) on those technologies than the rest of the world combined or he doesn't know that the military actions that he has ordered have killed people in the name of making Americans' lives better.

Or maybe he ordered the military actions knowing they would not make Americans' lives better.

Be careful when using generalities. Anti-science? Your source only cited 1 example. Scientists disagree all the time, take genetically altered foods for example.
I don't like bush for many reasons but I didn't ask the question. Give examples to support your point of view and start a discussion.

The Bush administration is just simple anti they have their own agenda and motives, not the people best interest. God will not allow mankind to destroy the earth. This is God position to do to destroy the evil on the earth, and to destroy something permanently is to burn it to ashes, addition to Bush administration can not force another country to live up to some scientist environmental issues.

I would say that Bush is less anti-science than he is pro fundamentalist christianity. In the end, the result is the same: science takes a back seat to faith.

Bush is not anti-science, he's anti-common-sense. There's a big difference. His job as judge and jury wears heavy on him.

How is being anti-bush the same as being anti-religion pro abortion? The logic escapes me

No, it never once said that the Bush administration was anti-science, that was your inference. It more or less said that some scientific discoveries made, Bush rejected. I wonder though, are there any other studies that object to the same ones that Bush did. One study proves nothing, except more studies need to be conducted under the exact same conditions.
