How Global Warming Science Ate The NASA Budget
The Daily Caller ^ | 11/17/2015 | Andrew Follett

The Daily Caller (11/17, Follett) reports that according to Representative Lamar Smith, chairman of the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, NASA's dedication toward climate research has reduced the funding available for its planetary science and exploration efforts. In an email to the Daily Caller News Foundation, Smith stated, "The Obama administration has consistently tried to cut NASA's space exploration budgets in order to fund increases for Earth science programs," adding, "Just this year, the president proposed drastically cutting NASA's exploration systems by more than $440 million dollars while Earth Science accounts have increased by 63 percent over the last 8 years." Smith notes that while 13 different agencies conduct climate-related research, "only one conducts space exploration."

Seems that someone(s) will have job security with this. NASA should just collect data and let others make fools of themselves.

How can dollar amounts be compared to percentages? Dumbass writer or someone trying to cover up something?

I thought that was NOAA’s responsibility.

I had a friend who worked at NASA-Ames in San Jose.
She said it was filled with idiot PhD’s who were doing research on nonsense projects.

It’s worse than that. Ames is nothing but a private airfield for Google.

NASA needs fumigated.
Obamacare needs trashed completely.
EPA needs to be disbanded.
The military needs to be re-built.
The education system needs over-hauled.
Illegal alien invaders need to be deported.
etc., etc,, etc., ...
There is so much work to be done when the White House is finally eradicated of the current infestation.

They should be warning people about the earth’s weakening magnetic field and the increased levels of cancer, instead of wasting money on global warming bullsh*t.
