GOP Congressmen Say Science ‘Czar’ Should Explain His Views
(CNSNews.com) – White House science adviser John Holdren should return to Congress to explain his views, including his notion that a baby that has already been born might “ultimately†become a human being if given the proper resources.
Rep. Jack Kingston (R-Ga.) told CNSNews.com that the “science czar†should “absolutely†come back to explain his views, and more than a dozen other GOP congressmen nodded in agreement.

“He did say, I think, 1 billion people would die from global warming by the end of 2020,†Kingston said. “Well if that’s the case, we need to know about it. And coming from the science czar, that makes you think, ‘OK, maybe we’ve got to know.’ But that’s all part of the process.â€
Kingston was referring to Holdren’s prediction that global climate change could kill a billion people in a few decades that he and Paul Ehrlich wrote about it in the 1986 book, “The Machinery of Nature.â€

“I think it could happen,†Holdren said, later adding, “I don’t think it’s likely. I think we should invest effort -- considerable effort -- to reduce the likelihood further.â€
Could there be any better example of science being corrupted by politics?
