U.S. URGING TERRORISTS TO BUILD ROCKETS?: Obama Commands NASA Chief to Reach Out for Muslims (Guests in MDT)
On the surface, it would read as one of the most perplexing directives to ever come out of the White House. But for those who have become increasingly weary of Barack Obama’s inclinations as President, it’s par for the course.
In an article released at FoxNews.com (see the link below), NASA Administrator Charles Bolden (pictured) reveals that President Obama has given him the “foremost mission as head of America’s space exploration agency…to improve relations with the Muslim world.”
Yes, that’s right. Above anything related to space that reason would dictate to be NASA’s prime and only objectives, the agency is first to serve as a diplomat to Islamic nations here on Earth.
For an insightful analysis of what’s wrong with this picture, Special Guests can line you up with two different experts—one offering a religious-relations view and one a political view. Both are available for interviews either individually, or together as a guest panel.
First is military chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt, who is not only a religious leader with his eye firmly on the Muslim ball, but is also a U.S. Air Force member with experience as an astronautical engineering student, a missile launch officer and an officer inside the U.S. Space Command in Colorado Springs.
The way he sees it, this diplomacy directive Obama has given NASA is not only senseless and inappropriate, but potentially dangerous.
“Some extremist Muslim nations refuse to educate their children—especially girls—in math and science,” says the chaplain. “Instead, they would have them sit and memorize the Koran and learn how to become terrorists themselves someday. Therefore, the last thing we want is for these ‘students’ to be inspired to make rockets. God knows the rockets they create would not be for space exploration, but, rather, to carry nuclear warheads aimed at Israel or Washington, D.C.”
Meanwhile, to examine this issue from another angle is political commentator and former Colorado Congressman, Bob Beauprez (R), who, like Klingenschmitt is troubled by Presidents who put foreign relations and political correctness ahead of national security.
“Unfortunately,” says Beauprez, “hijacking the top echelon of science and technology to cajole our enemies would be consistent with this President’s agenda. He has spent 18 months bowing and apologizing to our enemies, while ignoring, embarrassing, offending and confusing our allies. This President is a globalist and a radical leftist. Remember, he told us he would ‘transform’ America. He doesn't respect our traditions, the Constitution, and certainly not free-market capitalism. Just like Saul Alinsky preached, the end always justifies the means, and this President’s transformational agenda knows no boundaries.”

ABOUT YOUR GUEST, CHAPLAIN GORDON JAMES KLINGENSCHMITT:
“Chaps” is a national celebrity who earned TV, radio, newspaper and Internet fame by standing up for the rights of military chaplains to pray publicly “in Jesus’ name.”
By demanding his own court-martial for the crime of praying publicly in uniform, and sacrificing his 16-year military career and million-dollar pension, he mobilized the entire pro-faith community and 85 percent of polled voters. As a result, Congress overturned national policy, restoring the rights of all chaplains to pray according to their faith.
In his military career, Chaps served as an Air Force Academy graduate, having begun as an astronautical engineering student, until switching his major to politics. He sat for five years underground as a missile launch officer, and served another six years in U.S. Space Command in Colorado Springs.
ABOUT YOUR GUEST, BOB BEAUPREZ:
Bob Beauprez is a former dairy farmer, community banker and member of Congress who has spent his entire life working to leave Colorado a little better than he found it.
He was born and raised on a third generation family farm in Lafayette, Colorado. Bob's grandfather emigrated from Belgium in 1907 and founded a general livestock farm specializing in draft horses. Bob's father took over the farm and developed a nationally renowned Hereford beef cattle breeding herd and transitioned to dairy cattle in the 1950s.
The daily regime of chores, fieldwork and milkings taught Bob a disciplined work ethic that would serve him well throughout his life.
After graduating from the University of Colorado in 1970, he went into partnership with his parents and brother, Mike, in the family farming operation. He managed the dairy herd, eventually marketing their cattle throughout the United States with cattle on every continent except Australia.
During that time, Bob pioneered the use of embryo transplant technology to increase the quality and marketability of the family herd. He also served eight years on the National Holstein Association Board of Directors, including five years as Chairman of the Genetic Advancement Committee. He later also became an industry spokesperson and international judge of Holstein cattle.
The dairy herd was dispersed in 1990 and Bob managed the development of the real estate for his family, eventually becoming part of a 1,500-unit residential golf course community. At the same time, Bob and his wife, Claudia, purchased controlling interest in a small community bank. As President, CEO and Chairman, Bob expanded the bank from one to 13 locations and grew its assets from $4 million to more than $400 million in twelve years.
Bob served as President of the Colorado Independent Bankers Association and was on the Board of the Independent Bankers of America.
While running the bank Bob was politically active as the chairman of the Boulder County Republican Party, and later as Colorado State GOP Chairman. He retired from the bank to run for the new 7th Congressional District in 2002, winning the nation’s closest Congressional election that year by 121 votes. After one term, in 2004, he was reelected by more than 30,000 votes.
While in Congress, Bob served on the Ways and Means, Transportation, Veterans Affairs and Small Business Committees. He was also Vice-Chairman of the Highways and Infrastructure Subcommittee and a member of the Republican Leadership Whip Team.
In 2006, he was the Republican nominee for Governor in Colorado.
Since 2007, Bob has published a monthly e-magazine called A Line of Sight (http://www.alineofsight.com/), a public policy and opinion resource on current political issues. Then, in 2009, he authored his first book: A Return to Values: A Conservative Look at His Party. He is also Vice-Chairman of The John Hancock Committee for the States (http://www.hancockcommittee.org/).
Bob married his high school sweetheart, Claudia, in 1970. They have three sons and one daughter, as well as three grandchildren. Bob and Claudia have returned to their agricultural roots recently by purchasing a ranch in the Colorado Mountains near the Wyoming border. They are developing a buffalo-breeding herd in partnership with their son, Jim. Bob continues to stay politically active, guest hosting on various radio talk shows, doing numerous media interviews nationally, and maintains a busy public speaking schedule.
