DU`ers think this is all a hoax/conspiracy/setup. They would be ecstatic about another shuttle disaster.
“My prediction from the start of this mission is that NASA intends to stage a heart wrenching, nation grabbing event - no matter how minor the scrapes on the shuttle - in order to get more money out of Obama. The second shuttle will be deployed, we’ll all gather around the television for the risky retrieval of the first crew and when they’re back on earth we’ll be so bloody full of that red, white and blue “can do” spirit that NASA will get a blank check.”

Nothing from that cesspool shocks me anymore.
