if Pelosi’s face skin were allowed to assume it’s natural, unBotoxed state, she too could glide like a flying squirrel.

Suspect something similar to the way birds and dolphins ride a wake.

Why? So they can get the TSA goons to frisk the snakes before they fly?!?!

No, not enough curves.

How about funding a study on Snakes in the Oval Office?

I already know how these snakes fly and by what method they are able to glide from place to place.

They use Air Force 1 to do it. Once in a while they use a helicopter but that is for getting them to closer locations.

Now they can just send me a few million and we’ll call it a day.

"Sounds like a great way to spend money.."

A myopic person never sees where he is going. If you personally can't see the objective, that does not mean the objective is not worthy.

"...as the country's economy is sinking due to government debt!"

Where did this jewel come from? Firstly, the economy is not sinking: it is growing slowly. And, secondly, this is happening not because of any size of the government debt but because of structural (socialist) problems we have.

"the article pretty much describes how the snakes glide from a tree, but our tax dollars are needed."

Most of research we have been doing for the last 2400 or so years was not limited to describing phenomena but aimed at understanding them.

Has it occurred to you that the Internet you are now using had been created by the same organization?
