I used to be a big fan of the space program and NASA. With NASA in the tank for global warming, manufacturing inaccurate reports to support the unsupportable, I have to reconsider.

NASA has passed it’s prime and seems to want to be a political agency. In that case, let NASA go away. If there are things to be done in space, let the free market drive it. (I never thought I’d say that!)

Funnily, I was thinking pretty much the same thing this morning. :-/

Truthfully, NASA’s efforts at space exploration have been lackluster for a long time. No interesting new spacecraft for many years now... The robotic missions have been interesting, if not terribly ambitious.

Time for nuclear spaceships! :-)

[Yeah, I know it’ll have to wait at least one more administration.]

What free market?

Haven't you hear?

"I've abandoned free-market principles to save the free-market system to make sure the economy doesn't collapse."---George Bush

Do you think that Zero and the liberal congress is going to squander this opportunity to nationalize as much of the 'free market' as possible?
