There were many Christians slaughter in Egypt this year. 11 were quietly lock in their houses during all the protests. The families were killed by Islamists taking advantage of the chaos and lack of police.

Obama will not speak out when Christians are slaughtered.

NASA takes at least 6 months to plan on taking a dump. No way they could decide on a name in under 18 days ...

There ya go ...

They do things very well, but they don’t do things very quickly.

a lot of money with little recent gain

You one of those “instant gratification” types ?

NASA has been the driving force in MOST of the technological innovations in our country, even in our world, for the last 50 years or so.

I support NASA keeping on doing what they do.

(I don’t support NASA doing what 0 wants out of them at the moment)

Why can’t we name the rocket, Alice?

“To the moon, Alice. To the moon.”

They achieved great things in the past, then they lost lives on shuttles that didn’t even need to be manned anymore. Christie McAuliffe can now be remembered as the first teacher that died in a space shuttle accident; for what? She never even got into space (as though that had any meaning in the larger scheme of things - ask her children). We’ve now lost 2 of them, with little justification.

We should at least be able to hurl toxic waste into the sun with them in these empty cargo containers all over NJ, and have them return with holds brimming with moon-oil or something.

Our nation seems to no longer understand the difference between the words “victim” and “hero”.

With the Imam Obama-the UNDOCUMENTED Kenyan,
NASA’s sole goal is to give al Qaeda Orbital technology,
nuclear weapon payload tech, and to name all US
flights after famous al Qaeda operatives.

America is screwed by the DNC and their al Qaeda
and Ikhwan operatives.

This is incredible. I'm sorry, after 9-11 I still beleive Islam declared war on us.

No, they declared war on America when Jefferson was President. Never forget about the Barbary Wars.

Ok, I’ll bite. This is complete nonsense.

What has NASA done since 1970 that has been a “driving force”?

That’s exactly what I think we should be doing with toxic waste. The only problem is safety. You’ll have a lot of radiation spread out over a massive distance should a rocket fail and explode.

Well, if you want to split hairs, you can say that war was declared in 1095 for that matter.

The United States of America will come to nothing as long as the people in charge of her see that she is valueless in their sight. This Egyptian womans death is meaning less to me compared to the lives of soldiers who went into harms way on behalf of others and doing so in volunteer fashion. I resent this presidents lackluster performance and willingness to lower America at every turn. Of the thousands of American heros deserving the respect of such naming of a national assett we lose it to a political idiots dream.
