“Ad to appear in major Chinese newspapers:
WANTED: Someone with money and vision to assume possession of the former U.S. Mission to the Moon Project. Project comes complete with solid, experienced workforce. Payment of relocation expenses for workforce is requested.”
Equipment for sale cheap - high bids will begin at $.05 on the US dollar. Military equipment sale to follow shortly.
“Yep. No dem voters on the moon, after all.”
That’s because they prefer to stand in welfare lines waiting for free handouts, and actually working - with sweat and all - revolts them.
Thats what I am hoping, that private enterprise will fill, somewhat, the hole left by this.
“And this is exactly why zer0 is cutting the program.”
But, but didn’t he promise to “restore science to its rightful place”?/s
“The moon actually is of military importance, especially if you look at how the 21st century is shaping up. The moon is beyond the range of any existing terrestrial anti-satellite weapons, but a railgun or linear accelerator on the moon has a practically unlimited ammunition supply and can hit any spot on the planet Earth.”
The Chinese, Russians, Indians and Japanese know this fact. US citizens and their so-called political leaders are not interested because it would cost too much, and besides a US miltiary outpost on the moon would be contrary to their ideals and conflict with the coming fire sale of US military equipment.
Obots would rather follw than lead, and submission to the Chinese and Islmists will assage their shop-worn consciences.
Yes he did and in his eyes the rightful place of science is in subservience to The 0ne's political agenda. :0/
Color me surprised. Most of us here already knew what Obama was going to do to the space program. “It’s too White”
He hasn’t learned from JFK, has he?
There go some more jobs...............................going, going, gone.
BWahahahah...i clicked the thread just to say that, but you were sittin at #2 already...
Still a little surprised nobody replied to my "what question is he going to ax it" post with the "That's Racist" boy animated gif.
They helped elect Sen. Bill Nelson who supports the marxist who is destroying America. Nelson is big on global warming and Gore. He is NASA’s boy in DC.
Americans allowed illegals to flood and which has bankrupted the country and FL.
well if you placed the ‘gansta signin’ bambam pics with it, it really wouldnt be racist...would it ???
NASA funding should be a static 1% of our total expenditures. That way the only way they can cut NASA is by cutting other programs like Welfare first.
It is in my backyard. I live in the Houston area. I hope it does not shut down, at least during this recession depression. I'm just saying no government agency should be justified just because people have jobs in the agency. It's not like it's a private company taking its chances like any other company. It is a taxpayer-funded government agency. If it can find something useful to do, so be it. But going to the moon to plant another flag is IMO a waste of money. Again, I do not want to see money taken from NASA so that Zero can spend on Global Warming BS.
BTW, thanks for defining my opinion as my opinion.
I agree with you on putting the funds towards Environmental Science junk. We are going to get gutted like a fish here in Brevard.
Don’t worry they have $8 billion to start on high speed rail, which will likely cost 3 times as much as require constant subsidies.
You left out one more:
$#@!
We would get more from a viable space program then from high speed choo choo
Totally agree and your song “Rockets on the Ground” was awesome! Thanks for a bit of humor today. It was sorely needed.
Don’t I know it.
