White House Was Warned of Shuttle Safety (Media Bias Alert)

Reuters ^ | February 3, 2003 | Randall Mikkelsen

And wasn't Todd the one who said the shuttle was ON FIRE in California?

TLB has no credibility on any subject.

[Timesink]

I think any "safety whistleblower's" rants should be taken with a grain of salt, unless they have, at the very least, substantial circumstantial evidence of intentional wrongdoing. There's ALWAYS "more safety" that could be added in. If NASA spent $10 million, well, why not $100 million? If $100 million, why not a billion? If a billion, why not $10 billion? Etc ad infinitum. As a generic argument, it's completely meaningless.

[TLBSHOW]

I am right and it was on fire over california dear!

[TLBSHOW]

I never said NASA is not at fault. I have said NASA should never of let that shuttle up until they had the problems fixed!

[anniegetyourgun]

You are nuts, and I'm not your 'dear'.....

[justshe]

And wasn't Todd the one who said the shuttle was ON FIRE in California?

---

Yep......he was. He KNOWS, by GOD!

[Howlin]

I am right and it was on fire over california dear!

An absolute lie.

[Howlin]

Absolutely none.

[Green]

I am right and it was on fire over california dear!

Really? I hadn't heard that before. Where was this reported?

[TLBSHOW]

You think it wasn't heated up to 3000 degrees and not on fire? That is why people can't trust you.

[justshe]

NOW I get it......YOU can't READ!

You said: I never said NASA is not at fault.
...in response to
MY statement: TLBSHOW accused NASA of killing 7 astronauts

TLB.......you are attempting to SPIN exactly what *I* said!

You poor, pathetic, dupe.

[TLBSHOW]

I just got a freepmail and O'Reilly wants answers from Don. He wants answers from NASA. He thinks Don should come out and tell what he knows.

I guess this was the first part of his show tonight. Repeat at 11.

[TLBSHOW]

Go call someone else names. That cares! LOL

You people are not conservatives and for sure not compassion ones. I bet the President would have nothing to do with any of you.

[justshe]

I bet the President would have nothing to do with any of you.

---

Well....I'm PRETTY sure he would have nothing to do with someone who has called him a "socialist", and a "liberal just like Clinton"-----now WOULD he, TLB?

YOU, have a history now, bucko!

[Howlin]

I bet the President would have nothing to do with any of you.

You're in no position to speak FOR or about this president. We all know you hate him.

[Howlin]

You think it wasn't heated up to 3000 degrees and not on fire?

So why don't they all burn up then, Todd? Because they ALL come in at 3000 degrees when the hit maximum entry.

How do you explain that fact?

That is why people can't trust you.

I'll put my crediblity and knowledge up against yours any day of the week.

AMazing . Im a Canadian and watching this all unfold again on Your President. Its Bush's fault that the shuttle blew up; Its Bush's fault the towers went down. Its Bush's fault for spending Billions on your militery which Clinton cut and comprimised . My American friends I have nerer seen such a heightened and lashing oout against this man Bush. He must be doing something right to have so many hate him. Thank God for this man who has once again restored the office of the Presidency and What it means to stand up in the face off all opposition. God can only help America because evil lives right in your own backyard. Destruction from within. No matter how powerful and blessed America is it is because God is helping you .

SPACE CENTER, Houston (AP) -- NASA acknowledged Monday that its "best and brightest" minds may have gotten it wrong when they concluded in a report four days before Columbia disintegrated that a flying, 2 1/2-pound chunk of insulation did no serious damage to the shuttle's thermal tiles during liftoff.
