U da MAN!!!

Gotta have a picture of the most beautiful conservative to go with her excellently analyzed article.

I didn't lose any sleep over the space shuttle either.

There are risks in space travel, death and the loss of a billion dollar spacecraft are two of them.

They served their respective countries admirably, and we mourn their loss, but it is time to move on. Space is a dangerous place, that is just the risk you take.

We CANNOT stop taking those risks, we need to get to space and the other planets, ASAP. Maybe, just maybe, we won't get a bunch religious fanatics that are able to destroy all of us, if some of us are on the moon or Mars. Awfully hard to get to space when technology is against your religion and ignorance the noblest height.

I don't think that's a barrier.

i wrote this two days ago and got slammed by freepers for not mourning the astronauts enough,,,,,here is an example with a post just after mine,,,,,,,To: kidkosmic1

A few days before the Columbia was lost there were four crew killed in a Blackhawk helicopter crash in Afghanistan,, the story got a thirty second mention on the news,, no flag at half staff, no interviews of the relatives , no lookback of their life,, no memorial, no memorial services for television, we don't even know their names. These brave heroes who were protecting our freedoms and our very lives were forgotten in less than a minute. With the 24/7 coverage that the shuttle story will cover(and they are already driving this story into the ground), it's too bad our soldiers and their lives couldn't have been be more appreciated...

Please, cut it out. We love and miss our service men. And I prayed for them and their families. But at this time, let us enjoy in peace and have a moment of tranquility as we grieve for these astronauts and their families.

Give us a moment to rest on the Lord.

Scott, an incredible site. Thank you for your exceptional work. May our Lord Jesus Christ bless you always.
