I’d rather keep the money in my pocket and spend it on something I actually want.

That would be a fantastic way for our dear president to make history, and be completely unforgettable!

I think it hilariously that Charlie Crist would take out a banner ad from a web site called “Mars Daily,” he knows his audience.

This could be an opportunity! Anoreth and Darks, being so small, could be shipped for less cost ...

We had the technology to hoist a 1,000 ton habitat to the moon 60 years ago, but lacked the vision and will. Had Project Orion been pursued, we’d already be on the moon, Mars, and the Jovian system.

Nova was a proposed Nasa followup to the Saturn V rockets that were supposed to take astronauts to Mars.

I can think of several people to whom I’d like to award a one-way trip to Mars.

For what? Red rocks and red dust? No thanks

Now find that planet where those green-skin Orion girls are, and I'll get my check book.

No, but there are several members of congress who I would like to send there.

Well, if you sign up and get launched, how does anyone know if you made it?

How do you insure that they don’t drop you off somewhere else instead?

And if there’s trouble, what will you be able to do about it?

Worth every penny we can muster to get rid of Michael Moore, Barack Obama, Sean Penn, and Hugo Chavez. A multinational effort!

The trip back, now, that’s expensive.

Thanks mrreaganaut.
