Look at the Apollo program that put men on the moon. The technical spin offs from that program alone have lead to laptop computers, GPS navigation, improved laser technology, better protective clothing for firefighters and a host of other new technologies. NASA and its contractors also provided a training ground for some of the best engineers and scientists this country has ever seen and an inspiration for kids to go into science and engineering professions.

Obama has single handed killed the US space program and help fill our schools with mediocre union teachers more concerned with political correctness, the pseudo science of global warming and making sure that kids never have to compete least they "feel bad" than teaching them math and science.

IMHO, Obama is only a blip on the screen, a bump in the road of the glorious history of America: that is if this year we stand and fight for the right people to lead: Newt

This is the same logic behind every bit of crony capitalism and government-supported subsidy/boondoggle that most conservatives criticize-- that the government is smarter at spotting opportunities, and the private sector is wrong not to be supporting this on its own.
