I am thinking that this will hurt Obama with his base, just a bit.
It might also tick off some, in the scientific arena, enough that they start attacking Obama.

We have less money to spend, he explained, at home and on Capitol Hill.

Glad they understand. When will the tax cut be coming to put MORE money into the HOME budget? waiting..waiting..waiting..waiting..

Yup, let’s quit spending money on all those foolish idiots who spent time in college getting real degrees in complex subjects. It’s far, far better to spend dollars on “educating” folks for the upcoming govt jobs (none of which require an IQ above room temp).

And, given the low quality of our university education, perhaps some can even write for the Boston Globe (if it’s still around).

What are the implications for jobs lost in the space industry?

Why certainly the trillions spent on welfare and social engineering have produced many more results for society.

Why we might not even have our current president without those trillions! The advances in science and technology produced by the moon program are nothing compared to the emergence of Zero!

I wonder if this moron was using his cellphone, as he typed this on his computer while his coffee was warming in the microwave?

None of those things wouldn’t exist in their current form without the knowledge gained in NASA missions.

Lefties are ignorant, have no vision, hateful, intolerant, and dangerous.

In going to the moon, Kennedy challenged Americans to be our best. Yes, it cost a lot of money, but much of today’s technology is due to the money spent in the 1960’s putting a man on the moon.

Today, Obama wants to discourage Americans and instead spend our money on losers.

Quite a contrast between two Democrat Presidents.

We used to do great things, things befitting a great nation.

This generation was not worthy of its inheritance.

A physicist at Uniuversity of Texas wrote a similar piece which was published in the Dallas Morning News.

PHOOEY!

Looking at it from another angle...

If obama can gut NASA to use the money for entitlement/reparations, then what is to stop him from - and we all know of his penchant for spending OUR money - from cancelling medicare and social security, as well?

Incrementalism is the progressives favorite ploy, and obama plays it like a $2 fiddle.

Maybe we don't need to go back to the moon, but we don't need to use that same tax money to feed the slackers of the world either.

It’s always “cut something else”. Which is why nothing gets cut.

Lets cancel this kind of crap. Obozo could inspire them to something more but he chooses to throw them some pennies and forgets about them till election time instead.

Zero has, yet again, killed ‘American exceptionalism’ and handed the moon over to the commies. Oh, and did anyone notice the report this morning? GM and Nasa (I repeat....GM) are working together to develop a ‘spacewalk robot’? How convenient.

Alex Beam is one of the resident editorial asses in the huge herd which has been so lovingly maintained by the Boston Globe on its well-fenced Morrissey Boulevard plantation estate. This “opinion piece” is a depressingly typical example of his depth of introspection.

But let us be grateful he earns his keep writing nonsense for the Bosto Globe. One need only imagine the consequences if Beam had been an advisor to Ferdinand and Isabella, or Ferdinand of Portugal, or the Phoenician court, or any other entities approached for funding by visionary and forward thinking people of any age.

I may not agree with this moonbat - but...

Just how much science has come out of the white elephant called the ISS.

I dont recall any ‘breakthru’ new anything related to the space program.

Face it in 1960 NASA was cutting edge, now they are mostly COTS - Commercial off the shelf systems.

Anyway, NASA is toast, if you think space is still a viable industry, start looking to buy stock in one of the new startups...

Completely out of touch with the hard fact that the last five or more generations in this Country have been raised on the Space Program, and many of them who are now adults do not find Premier Hussein’s ideas for space exploration any better than any of his other “visions” for anything.

Premier Hussein is the least qualified guy in any room where serious discussion of this topic takes place. He knows nothing and has never run so much as a popsickle stand in his life.
