This is failure is the responsibilty of the feckless hussein. He has dismantled the best health care system in the world, the finest military in history and President Ronald Reagan’s pride, NASA.

At least the Muslim outreach has been a success for NASA, right Obama?!

But the Muslims feel good about themselves, that’s all that matters to NASA.

Someone should rework this video and play it with a voiceover of election returns for certain democrats.

When the Challenger exploded in 86, it was said “Need Another Seven Astronauts”. In New England, whose Patriots lost the Super Bowl to the Bears 46-10, it was said the Super Bowl and the Challenger had one thing in common: both were good for about 86 seconds...

Wow!!!! NICE!!

As tragic as it may be, you just have to admire such a grand explosion! (though very expensive)

We should have hired the Russians to launch it..... /cry

My first thought as well.

This is what happens when you take your focus off of manned space flight and put it on muslim outreach instead.

In the spirit of this Administration, NASA claimed the rocket was martyred.

That’s okay. I spelled ‘LIFTOFF’ correctly initially, then the moderator came along and lower cased it AND MISSPELLED IT IN THE PROCESS TO ‘LIFETOFF’.

Yep, we’re no longer exceptional. Thanks, obama. The only thing that could make this worse would be if its payload was ebola spores or whatever.

Ask Russia if we can ride in the back of their rocket.

...

This was a contracted launch. While this affects NASA, I doubt the failure had anything to do with NASA.
