NASA Flunky Apology Tour

Fox News ^

[Viktor1959]

There is another Apology Tour to the Muslim World getting underway. This time, rather than President Obama touring the Middle East and bowing to foreign rulers, NASA Head Charles Bolden and other NASA officials will tour the Middle East, performing their newly-appointed role of “Muslim Outreach”.

Why must our NASA officials, whose job it is to oversee America’s Space Program, go to the Middle East for Muslim Outreach? None of the Middle East Countries even has a space program. The trip began on Friday. The delegation is going to Prague, then to Saudi Arabia, to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the first Muslim going into space. The man was a member of the Saudi Arabian Royal Family. Bolden is expected to have a meeting with King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia. From there, Bolden and his team will travel to Nepal, where he will deliver a keynote speech about climate change. .

That strategy would seem plausible if obama was honestly reaching out to a shared interest in space.
But there is nothing honest about this goof and his team.
Seems to me that all this mooslimb outreach is about laundering money from us to his buds.

"...strategy is to cut into the recruitment techniques of the radicals by showing common goals between the non radicalized Muslim and the West. One plank in that is to put out information, like how Muslims contributed to astronomy and math (in the year 700), so that they can look at the space efforts and say, we had/have a part in that. ..."

So, in effect the message is "Look, your ancestors did math and numbers and stuff, and we used that knowledge in our space program. Please don't kill us".

I prefer "Hey, America knows numbers and stuff, and we've used that knowledge in our nuclear weapons program. Behave like a civilized human, or we will kill you".

I wonder if the media will ever snap to the fact that this president is responsible for killing the future of American MANNED space flight, and relenquishing the lead to Russia, China...

I heard Japan is preparing a program for themselves on their launch vehicle...

It’s ok, we’ll just hitch a ride on whomever is going up I suppose...Spend millions for those seats...That’ll be ok...

Obama cut the space program because the space program was a symbol of American greatness - which he hates.

To complete the castrating of the space program, he turns it into a bowing down to ONE RELIGION. Clearly illegal and unconstitutional.

Let’s see now. Imagine “NASA head plans Baptist outreach”
The ACLU would have sued within 5 minutes.

probably consulting with planners for a mosque on the moon

[stevie_d_64]

There is no strategy other than this president wants (has a deep desire) to kill as many jobs associated with the manned space program, who knew what he was all about in the first place...

Texas, Florida, Alabama, etc etc etc...

By this time next year, I’ll be driving by NASA-JSC and wondering who or what is wasting electricity in that place...

Hope they turn out the lights on the way out and lock the doors...Going to be a ghost town by the end of next year...

But then again there are people, even on this website, that apparently agree with this plan, and eventuality, by this president...

“O” has some very weird protocol going on here.

I can’t believe the precedent “O” has been permitted to set for such monstrously bizarre and thoroughly public irregularities where traditional diplomacy is called for
