For the second time this presidential campaign, Hillary Clinton is claiming a federal agency rejected her inquiries to serve because she was a woman.
Clinton, appearing Tuesday on the Steve Harvey Show, said growing up, she wanted to be an astronaut.
“I was excited about the space program. I was excited about President Kennedy saying we were gonna send a man to the moon and bring him back within the decade. I thought it was really incredible we were gonna do that,†she told Harvey.
“So, yes, I wrote to NASA,†she said.
“Really…†Harvey replied.
“I wrote to NASA, you know, and said, well, how do you get the be an astronaut. They wrote me back saying, ‘thank you very much for your interest. At this time we are not accepting women astronauts,'†she said as the audience collectively sighed.
“And it did, you know, it hurt my feelings, but I could never have been an astronaut anyway, but I was happy that Sally Ride and other women got to be astronauts later on,†she said to applause.

More blah blah from the congenital liar.
Poor Sally Ride. Could be someone else.
My name is Hillary! Jimenez and I ar an asternaut!
Wow! She looks like she was about 20, and the thighs were thundering even then!
Did she include an endorsement from Sir Edmund Hillary with her letter to NASA? How about a union label? (Or maybe she was pinned down and couldn’t find one at the time.)
not only was she a woman, she lacked the intellect to be in the NASA program
NASA had a chance to blast her off into space and blew it.
I bet they feel foolish now.
Nice unibrow there Hill.
She had enough eyebrow for two people.
Ah, the evil discrimination that she has been a victim of. Because of one letter, we’re supposed to make her president.
Navin Johnson has an astronaut application too
And being named Hillary after Sir Edmund Hillary, of Mt. Everest fame. Of course that happened three years after she was hatched out.
“So far so good, Hillary. Now for the next question in this interview.
You are on a space walk. Your oxygen tank starts to leak. What do you do?”
“I smash the face mask of the filthy male oppressor other astronaut and take his oxygen tank while cutting his umbilical cord and sending his blue-faced body into the flaming hell of re entry!”
“I see.........
Well, the correct answer is to switch on your reserve.
Interesting answer there.
Perhaps we can call you back if we’re ever interviewing for a commandant of a death camp.
Next!”
You know! I also wanted to be an astronaut at that time but I was too young and I’m two years older than Hillary.
Dude, WTH? Cat walk across your keyboard?

NASA rejected Hillary because she could not be relied on to keep secrets secret.
Only four years difference between Sally Ride and Hillary. The age argument doesn’t wash either.
It must have around the time Mt. Everest was climbed by the person she is named after, 25 years before he climbed it.
