The day after the hearing before the Senate Commerce Committee, Presidential Science Czar John Holdren was asked about going up against Neil Armstrong and Gene Cernan. Holdren's response was breath taking in its mendacity.

For Presidential Science Czar John Holdren failure isn't only an option, it is darn near a certainty.

“Science” and “Czar.” Hmmph! Two words who laugh in each others faces.

"breath taking in its mendacity"

That's an apt description to start off any summation of the sick mind and eugenics infatuation of John Holdren.

Not surprising - that little pissant Holdren never took a real risk or sacrificed anything in his whole sheltered and pampered little life. On the courage and honor scale of real men like Armstrong and Cernan, he doesn’t even register.

Exactly so. He's typical of the little men (and women) around Obama, individuals of no great accomplishment (like Obama!) who believe their appointments to position of power are proofs of their intellect and wisdom.

If there is anything to characterize Barrack Obama it is his selection of Zero's to serve him; Napolitano, Emmanuel, Sunstein, Holdren, etc.

It is a manifestation of his, or any other's, narcissism to elevate those with no values or courage, just yes-men/women.

Incidentally Colin Powell gets a lot of bad talk on FR, and he certainly made a mistake on BO, but it was one honorable characteristic of General Powell I know from real experience; he wasn't so small that he needed yes-men, and indeed encouraged independent thought.

Has John Holdren ever been placed on the nose end of a giant rocket, shot into space while enduring the force of 7,500,000 lbs of thrust, voyaged to the Moon, landed on the Moon, walked on the Moon, and returned to brag about it, all in 8 days? No? Then how, exactly, is he qualified to even stand in the same room as Armstrong? Arrogant, leftist piece of dung.

Holdren is to science what Andrew Dice Clay is to etiquette.
