to watch someone lie so effortlessly. Of course having a lap-dog media at your beck and call helps immeasurably. The mounting damage this guy is doing is jaw dropping. Keep your eyes on this one, too:

Moe,

King Obama has done many things, but the decision to retire the Space Shuttle has been in the works for a long time, dating back to President Bush I think. This is sort of the same argument that has gone on with the F22, lots of these decisions were made longer ago than the beginning of the reign of King Obama.

Consider for a minute that even if Constellation, or what ever NASA is calling it now days, had not been canceled, there was going to be some amount of job loss by United Space Alliance and the other folks down in Florida before the new program spun up. The Shuttle Fleet is getting rather old and was going to be grounded at some point in time, that’s just an engineering fact, and the job losses, that’s the nature of the business sadly.

shrinking the size of government. Next in line: the military, the CIA, the border patrol, any goverment arm dedicated to advancing or protecting our interest.
We will now have to go on bended knee to the Soviets, excuse me, the Russians, and pay them to get us into space. John Bolton is right, Obama is the first “post American President.”

It’s a company named KelTec.

Look it up.

It’s not like a government projection on impact has been anything but grossly under reported.

he’s just getting started. Look at the jobs that have been lost and tell me if you think he cares.

As many on the left see it, more unemployment will ultimately benefit them at the voting booth, as the more desperate people become, the more willing they are to trade their freedom for security.

Remember at the summit, the last thing he said was if you don’t like how things are going to turn out …well ” that’s what elections are for”. Of course he meant health care specifically, but in reality it could be any one of a number of shortsighted things he’s done. And, pres we do know we do know what elections are for.

So do the out of work engineers, math geniuses, science geeks, and other types of rocket scientists who keep the aerospace industry running. I guess they could pick up some work at Burger King, except burger kings will be drying up around there too,

But hey, on the flip side the pres has asked for National Endowment for the Arts to get $161.3 million. The same as last year. National endowment for Humanities also gets $161m . (I know little drops in a big bucket.)

Here is what a dying private sector looks like:

(Be sure to hit the play button)

I wonder what that graphic will look like three years hence?

Obama is systematically dismantling our private sector economy, and he is going to be doing it for almost three more years, as there is absolutely NOTHING the republicans can do to stop him.

-Dave

Like the fundamental scientific research, the payoff for the private sector investment is doubtful. Moreover, the investment threshold required for space exploration is far greater than what is required in many non-applied sciences.

Money for SEIU and ACORN to destroy the US from within, but no cash for NASA?

Democrats and their “investments”! Every investment to them is a political investment—they wouldn’t know an economic investment if it launched a rocket up their pants!

Obama promised something, but is now reneging on that promise? I’m shocked. He is usually so totally honest, open, transparent, ethical, and always follows through on his promises.

This is most distressing. It’s as though Superman got caught knocking over a liquor store. I might have to become a cynic now.

That’s right, the plan now (under review) is to abandon the ISS and let it burn up in the atmosphere in 5 years. What else can they do? After the shuttle goes, there will be no way to bring up replacement parts.

As fun as space exploration is, lets face reality. These are government jobs.The sauce program probably has lots of private sector spinoffs where business that actually makes a profile has benefited from the science. It would be interested to see an economic analysis to so if it has been a net gain or loss. Lets look forward to private enterprise taking over.

You heard it here first.

Obama’s New Social Secretary Has Strong Ties to Norman Hsu and Was Obama 2008 Fundraising Chief

http://tiny.cc/JGJOm

Former WH Soc Sec Desiree Rogers did do two “unprecedented” things for a WH Soc Sec:

1. Get run out under a cloud of scandal (party crashers)
2. Have the WH officially invoke executive privilege regarding her testimony to Congress.

AND, the new lady, Ms. Julianna Smoot, is also unprecedented:

1. Never before has the Chief Fundraiser for the Presidential campaign became WH Soc Sec
2. Never before has the WH Soc Sec been a total campaign insider like Smoot, who has worked for (get ready for it): John Edwards, Harry Reid, Chuck Schumer, Jay Rockfeller, Tom Daschle and of course the Democratic Senate Campaign cte (2006) prior to joining team Obama in late 06-early 07

How many jobs will be cut at the Johnson Space Center?

Ralph Abernathy of the NAACP back in the 1960′s and 1970′s led silly protests at Cape Canaveral/Kennedy, and claimed that the money for space should be spent on the poor.

Exploring outer space means that one is adventurous, ambitious, and inquisitive: you will be standing out from the dull herd by your participation or your support.

Space exploration lifts a country upward psychologically and economically, including the poor! Not to mention militarily!

It is obvious why MAObama wants to prevent the U.S. from remaining dominant: it is part of his “Teach America A Lesson” program to cut us down to the importance of a 19th-rate nation because of racism, sexism, capitalism, and any other -ism the Left considers a sin.

While losing 24k jobs is never a good thing. This is perhaps one of the most wasteful programs we have in our country. Obama may know that a basically republican district is a good place to make cuts, we should be watching to see if he is going to take this money saved, and put it against our greatest threat, the deficit.

The entire budget should cut spending by at least 50% in my opinion. What good is a space program or all the jobs if the rest of the country is lying dead due to all the debt anyways?

This is the type of spending that caused George Bush II to be thrown out of office. Hopefully Republicans have finally learned their lesson well from those 8 years of astronomical spending. If not, their tenure in charge is short lived.

It’s more about Obama lying about the space program. Like he lies about everything. Constantly. Pathologically.

This is my home but I do not work out at Kennedy nor is my job dependant on NASA. I have put off buying a house due to the inflated Florida market and now I am waiting for the mayheim to commence because if Obama gets his way this place is going to be ghost town.

I am still blown away how people DID NOT listen to Obama about the space program. He said during the election he was going to gut it.

I hear through a friend that Congress is proposing funding for Constellation, landing on the moon in the mid-2020s, and continued use of the shuttle until 2015.

that long.

But that would be great news if Congress could fund Constellation, landing on the moon in the mid 2020′s.

If only we still had the technical skill set of expertise that built the shuttles could build a couple of new shuttles while we’re at it so that the new shuttles could like til 2015….

I knew that Obama, was going to cancel the Moon mission. I remember hearing a speach earily in the Campaign, about how he was going to delay Constellation 5 years to fund his Education plan. But I didn’t realize he would go that far!
I am for going back to the Moon, but was never thrilled with the Ares 1 launcher, thought it was unsafe. Before they settled on the Ares 1 or the ‘Stick’ as its sometimes refered as. There was talk of using existing Commerical launchers to launch the Crew Capsule, Lunar Lander and the ‘Earth Departure stages’ for each, seperately and then have them dock, together in orbit. Which I felt was a more workable plan.
I am for Commerical development of space and that at some point that NASA should be purchasing rides to orbit from Commerical rockets as they become available, but would have had NASA develop a new vehicle in the interm. Space X is the only Commerical Company that is the closest to have a rocket and capsule ready to fly, which they say they were developing from the ground up to be ‘human rated’ safe for launching people.
