This must be a lie. Sheila Jackson has the Pathfinder rovers looking for the flags we planted on MARS. Don’t you guys know nuthin’?

Somebody should ask Sheila Jackson Lee to tell us the color of the flags we left on Mars.

Actually, perhaps the flags on the moon turned white after an Obama executive order for the surrender of the US to the whole universe.

Not for $5.50 they weren’t. They were likely just nylon sheets with the stars and stripes dyed on.

These days they’d cost $40,000 each and would be made (of cheaper material) in China by one of Obamateur’s friends. Or they’d be sewn at some union garment factory at $100 per star and $250 a stripe. It would take 4 years to make them, there would be 57 stars and 14 stripes, and they would unravel 5 minutes after launch.

Remember, that’s $5.50 in 1970s dollars.

Lol! True enough. That’s back when union garment “workers” were only demanding $50 an hour.

Oliver Stone will do a documentary stating Nixon went on that moon trip and that is why he was taken out by the clintons in the fake watergate scandal!

(JJ Abrams to do the directing of all action sequences)

Can’t someone just drive out to Nevada and replace them?

$5.50 ... lol

Are you sure NASA was a government agency then? I would expect the flags would have cost the taxpayers about $5,500 per item.

Spent billions going and we planted $5 flags

We didn't just plant flags, we left a plaque that states Richard Nixon was on the Moon. A president! Priceless! What do the Democrats have? John Glenn orbiting the earth? What's her name's husband taking one shuttle mission and quitting?

Facepalm indeed. . .

Look at the picture and read the plaque. If you were an uninformed Obama voter, that can read, what would you make of it?

Where did Nixon hide on the mission?

I don't know, "At this point, what does it matter?" He did it!

Err... Three Hero’s went. One lier hid in the White House

The plaque say he was there. If you disagree, go and change it. History is made by those who write it. Maybe when he said, "I am not a crook, he was already an astronaut?

Someone is going to have to go up there and change that A.D. to a C.E. or the atheists will sue.

White flags? Planted by White astronauts? Who went there on a white rocket???

“If the flags be white, I must incite!”. ... Jesse Jackson

They say revenge is a dish best served white. Deep space is very white. Goodbye Jesse Jackson!

Then launch him into space.
