In the video below, Charles Bolden, head of NASA, tells Al Jazeera that the “foremost” task President Obama has given him is “to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with predominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math, and engineering.” Thus, NASA’s primary mission is no longer to enhance American science and engineering or to explore space, but to boost the self-esteem of “predominantly Muslim nations.”
Exploring space didn’t even make the top three things Obama wants Bolden to accomplish. The other two are “re-inspire children to want to get into science and math” and “expand our international relationships,”
This is more evidence, if any were needed, of Obama’s lack of interest in American achievement or, indeed, American greatness. He seems to believe we’ve achieved enough (or perhaps too much) and that the trick now is to make nations that have achieved little for centuries feel like we couldn’t have done it without them (in the video, Bolden goes on to talk about how much NASA owes the Russians and the Japanese).
Behind the bravado of the Muslim world there may well lie an inferiority complex. If so, Obama is a fool if he believes we can help Muslims overcome that complex by having the head of the agency that symbolizes our technical superiority make patronizing statements about ancient Muslim contributions to science.

Seriously? Does Obama really think that is a necessary goal of OUR National Aeronautics and Space Administration? What the hell is going on in the heads of people who believe3 in his "Change"? What good do they and he "Hope" comes from this? Unbelievable!
One person noted this on my facebook:
Obama. NASA. Islam. Missile technology. A pattern perhaps. Hmmmm.
Interesting suggestion. Come on, Americans. Fight back.

There is no question that Muslims have an inferiority complex, and Barack is a Muslim. We need to eliminate Barack and all Muslims from USA shores!
And to think the American People voted for this clown and Usurper.. I am so sorry to say, but shame on all of you...
Muslim contribution to science? Please! Their only contribution may have been how much can they torture a person before death occurs. All this nonsense about the Islamic Golden Age is revisionist history created by "do-gooders" trying to help uncivilized Muslims feel good about themselves. The alleged contributions were stolen by the Muslims from their dhimmis. But of course the affirmative action head of NASA and the affirmative action President wouldn't know this because they were both victimized by the same scam to help non-performers feel good about themselves while living amongst performers.
What contributions?????
What is it going to take for we the people to come together and fight to take our country back. Every week there is something new that this administration is doing to destroy our country. Why in God's name can't the people see this? I am frightened to what is happening and I feel so sad that we can't seem to do anything about it. We will not have elections come November, and if we do there will be fraud. You can bet the black panthers will be out in numbers to make sure the whites don't vote. Also with SEIU and ACORN registering Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. We are losing our country. I have been praying that the military would save us, but I have come to realize that they are part of the problem. That is the higher up in military. Especially Robert Gates. He is a Bilderberg and CFR member.
Don't be fooled, this is simply another attempt to rewrite History. This will be easier to sell to the children when "they" are trying to push Shura (sp) Law onto us.
