NASA has been on life support like Arafat, but for a couple of decades. The new NASA goals and program are most welcome, but true space development won't happen under gov't programs except one--establish private property rights.

A nice article - very Italian, in the best sense of the world.

BTW, if you want to read an Italian writer that true understands America, read the late Lugi Barzini,

In all of this one is struck, however, by the deep ignorance of America by the EUros. The harking back to archetypes from domestic socialist archetypes of the 1930 - the cracker, the hobo - shows a profoundly distorted view of America, and is quite nettlesome. Are they aware that between the two of them OHI and Penn, boast 4 of the best symphonic orchestra in the world, the Wharton school and world class research Univeristies, universities the like of which exist nowhere in Europe? Do they Understand that, excluding the Louvre, Texas has better museums than France (and better Universities to boot?)

I voted for President Bush for two reasons.

I was a Navy advisor in Viet Nam while Kerry was meeting with the communists in Paris and preaching their dogma to the American media and Congress and thereby committing treason.

I am a very strong supporter of the Second Amendment. It has absolutely nothing to do with hunting. It is all about personal protection and protecting the Constitution.

Well those are fine reason and I support your position wholeheartedly, but I think that what you rightly despise are actually symptoms of a much deeper disease. That malady is, of course, socialism.

However one doesn't need to be very religious to see the "Frankenstein" type of science that I feel is taking place with aborted fetuses. I am beginning to think they are using this to justify abortion instead of actually producing real science that saves lives.

This grotesque mistreatment and disregard for human life, is a stepping stone towards Eugenics. Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, introduced this concept back in the '20's. Adolph Hitler picked up on it and followed it through to its final outcome.

What the Nazis did during WWII pales by comparison to what we are doing to our own children. 40 million + have been aborted, in this country alone.

As you so wisely pointed out, one doesn't have to be religious to recognize what is happening, as aborted babies become fodder for the living. As these profiteers continue to age, they may well find themselves 'victims' of their own greed. With 40 million less tax payers, the next generations may seek to euthanize the aged and infirmed. A serious reduction in Social Security funding (from the aborted) may well mandate the necessity of eliminating those who suck dollars from the system, without contributing anything back. What goes around, comes around.

"Those who have accepted the barbarism of abortion are forced to follow it all the way down. Any uneasiness about the reason for a particular "elimination" must be set aside for the greater good."

EUGENICS - Margaret Sanger, Founder of Planned Parenthood.

Sad, is it not?
