From the letter:
I am a NASA manager with over 30 years at Kennedy Space Center (KSC) working on Manned Spacecraft.

I WISH, at some point, that you would address those damned armadillos in your trousers. A new tagline is requested!

Who is Jose Garcia?I think his job was to service the Shuttle after every flight - ya know, vaccum the floors, clean the zero-gravity toilets, restock the in-flight magazines and barf bags in the puches on the backs of the seats etc...
To: Republican Red
It is odd that the White House chief of staff would watch a shuttle landing. Such a routine event - early on a Saturday morning,OMG! Really! Do tell, Newsmax!
ANY shred of respect I granted them is gone.

"escape pod" - "Ari shut up!"
I might be mistaken, but I think the escape pod idea was to protect the astronauts during the launch phase, not the re-entry phase, and would not in fact have prevented this tragedy.

Don is a hero and a good guy. This letter needed to be dealt with and that was what Fred and I tried to point out Saturday night, but we were attacked by the Bush Bots. Rush covered this on his show today and it was one of the big reasons he came back from break was to deal with attacks on The President. Since you people want to hide your heads about it. The facts are on that thread I linked here on this thread.
Now after that came out I did a search of the Clinton years about NASA and I found that he cut funding for NASA 7 years in a row. I posted that Sunday morning here so people could see it. I also found that the President was trying to refund NASA after he got in office. I posted that on threads here. So the blame is on Clinton.
I taged gracey because I believe gracey is a friend of Dons. And will say he is a good guy.
The end of this is Clinton cut NASA for 7 years and that is the problem. And Don is a private American now not a govt worker who put out the warning to our side about what he saw was a Problem at NASA because of Clinton. That is what the letter says. Don blames Clintons people and is pointing that out to The President. Not to follow Clintons left overs.

What did Clinton know and how much did he get for it?
To: Steve_Seattle
Maybe they should have exited during launch.
To: TLBSHOW
as you can see from that link myself and Fred Mertz were attacked for trying to be Patriots.That's not why you were "attacked", I feel confident in saying, without even clicking your link.

Ive often heard Clinton compared with Nero. You know, fiddling while Rome burned? Except in Clintons case it was more like Diddling....
To: TLBSHOW
What?
To: seamole
Fleischer said on Sunday that an escape pod would not have saved Columbia's astronauts. And Ari has what credentials to back this up? I'd like to see his advanced engineering degree and a list of his engineering works to date.
