John Holdren is Obama's appointed Science Czar. Like all Czars, they were not approved by the Senate, which is unconstitutional. He advocated in his book "Ecoscience", sterilization of the human population by adding a sterilization drug to the food and water supply and the government taking babies away from single mom's.

Opdehoede what would you suggest Bush? Why don't you donate some money to the Bush Oil fund. Then when gas is $10 a gallon you can go, oh jeez why don't we build more fuel efficient vehicles. Way to be close-minded.

This president is doing the US of A no good.

Thats my opinion after seeing The Obama Deception and Fall of the republic .

So cool! Kudos to the West Philly EV-X team - what a spectacular program. Do these students even need to fill out college applications, or can they just send this video in?

Only one term and Obama looks like he's aged about a decade...
