What question is he going to ax it?

[Red Badger]

...principally, researching and monitoring climate change...

I knew that was coming before I even read the piece........................

[Blue Highway]

Cripes, this idiot wants NASA to jump on board “climate change” because people aren’t buying it now. This guy is unreal. He is running the country into the dirt, and he is thinking he is doing well; a B+? I think it’s time to realize this guy is a Muslim and what his motives truly are.

[brownsfan]

I have mixed emotions on this one.

NASA has become an ineffective, politics dominated government agency. Funding them is throwing good money after bad.

But, when a nation quits stiving, when it loses it’s dreams, it’s a ticket to 2nd world status. Seems to me, this is one of many signals the American era is coming to an end.

[LFOD]

Trillions (we don’t have) for Wall Street/banks, unions and welfare puppies.

No money for real science and all the concurrent inventions and technologies gained as a result........great.
A real forward thinker there.

[MEGoody]

Given the choice between spending money for NASA to get men back to the moon or spending money for NASA to study climate change, I pick neither.

[GonzoGOP]

So Cernan will forever hold the title of the last American on the moon. Sad state of affairs. The Chinese will be there by the end of the 2020s. IIRC they didn't sign the treaty that says you can't claim territory in space like the US and Russia did. Back at the time of project Apollo nobody thought this was a problem. But we will soon be looking at a red moon.

[PGR88]

China will make it back to the moon before the USA.

Obama and the lefties will celebrate that.

[GeronL]

Oh joy....

Trading the future for unionized, graft and corruption of forever subsidized high-speed rail.

Ugh

[Happyinmygarden]

Ad to appear in major Chinese newspapers:

WANTED: Someone with money and vision to assume possession of the former U.S. Mission to the Moon Project. Project comes complete with solid, experienced workforce. Payment of relocation expenses for workforce is requested.

[pieceofthepuzzle]

This is exemplary of what many academic supporters of the left have failed to anticipate. Even though leftist candidates express support for science and research, in reality their policies bankrupt government and inevitably they also lead to a significant reduction in available funding for science and research. After they get personally stung by democrat ‘program’ spending and the consequent budget shortfalls, I think it’s likely that a fair number of academics are going to have buyers remorse.

[PoloSec]

Princess Obama is afraid that NASA will discover where he is really from...mmm...mmm...mmm

[YOUGOTIT]

Because he wants his brother Communist in China to be the next great Space Riders. And the left wants the money to go to their Communist/Nazi supporters.It is a shame that our Nation is being taken down so it will be a third world nation as the anti-American Progressives (Nazi) want it to be.

[eeevil conservative]

Obama learned his Alinsky very well....

in the fourth paragraph of the prologue in Rules for Radicals:

“What sense does it make for men to walk on the moon while other men are waiting on welfare lines, or in Vietnam killing and dying for a corrupt dictatorship in the name of freedom?”

for anyone interested in learning more about Alinsky...and exposing his evil....

[Touch Not the Cat]

Anything to hurt America.

[Oldpuppymax]

Yep. No dem voters on the moon, after all.

[rightcoast]

This is payback by Obama, pure and simple...

Rep. Parker Griffith of Alabama famously switched his party to Republican, and his district includes Huntsville, AL, the home of Marshall Space Flight Center.

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas gained notoriety from the Obama camp by endorsing Hillary Clinton's presidential run in 2008. Her district includes the home of Johnson Space Center in Houston, TX.

Rep. Suzanne Kosmas of Florida voted AGAINST the House health care bill, and she represents the FL district that encompasses Kennedy Space Center. Take a look at her picture on her House page, she has a shuttle there, for crying out loud!

[dead]

Well, NASA thought they could kiss the press and the federal government's asses by embracing "climate change" as if that would ensure them continuing and generous funding.

Now, instead of going to the moon and then Mars, they get to measure the temperature of the stratosphere over Mongolia, and photograph mud flats of Brazil with prop planes.

[My Favorite Headache]

What a POS liar this bastard is. He came to the space coast with his goon in tow Biden 3 times and said he wasn’t going to slash it. YOU LIE!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tennessee Nana]

Barry cant be the Moon and stars to everyone if he has a rival...
