You ask, what about the other 5%?

Pray.

[Secret Agent Man]

i would pray it would hit dc.

If there was a cataclysmic asteroid headed to earth, I would probably drive towards the destination. I wouldn’t want to be around when it hit.

[BenLurkin]

I’m tempted to pray that a large asteroid IS headed for earth.

Soon, hopefully.

Like tonight.

The events "serve as evidence that we live in an active solar system with potentially hazardous objects passing through our neighborhood with surprising frequency," said Representative Eddie Bernice Johnson, a Texas Democrat.

It appears Yahoo!News was shocked that a DemocRAT could say something that is even semi-intelligent. LOL! Otherwise, Representative Eddie Bernice Johnson would have been enough.

- NASA chief Charles Bolden has advice on how to handle a large asteroid headed toward New York City: Pray.

But...

If you’re not so keen on prayer, please fully fund all my projects NASA chief Charles Bolden added.

[Blood of Tyrants]

If it were aimed for a liberal crap hole like NYC or San Francisco, what would be the down side?

Chairman Lamar Smith, a Texas Republican, who called the hearing to learn what is being done and how much money is needed to better protect the planet.

Really! What could we do to protect ourselves (put up big nets to catch the Asteroid?)? Alas, nothing. Recovery in the aftermath is another matter.

IBT Planet X conspirators.. I haven’t ruled it out yet though.

“You ask,what about the other 5%?”

They blew that part of the budget on Muslim outreach...

I've been telling people for a long time that Space research is as important as the military. People foolishly think “how does blowing money up there help us here?” until a planet-killing or city-killing rock emerges from the depths of space and we lack the capability to do anything about it. With the current state of NASA, there is a good chance we won't even have a warning.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Can someone tell me why NYC is always center of the frikkin’ universe with these progs?

[Taxbilly]

So NASA admits there is a God!

[beethovenfan]

It’s that @$%&^*)*^%$$ global warming !!

[Kirkwood]

Back in 2010, obama said we were going to build an asteroid deflector for the big one coming in 2029. Guess he lied.

[Dysart]

Muslim outreach would seem to be the answer here.

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

I’m not going to lose any sleep over this. You take yer chances. You’ll never get out a here alive.

[knarf]

Ok .. settle down ... take your seats everyone ...

The article states only a large asteroid ... with no dimensions given

But I did find this;

"We were fortunate that the events of last month were simply an interesting coincidence rather than a catastrophe," said Committee Chairman Lamar Smith, a Texas Republican, who called the hearing to learn what is being done and how much money is needed to better protect the planet."

So, we're told nothing about a maybe asteroid that is large and let's see how much money we need ... after telling us to pray ... let's start looking into the money we need to ....,

sheesh

[The Great RJ]

Oh will all be dead from global warming before the meteor hits.
