Didn't you hear that Bolden's only qualification is that he's black?

...and that Obama's a Muslim, the same type of terrorist that took down the towers?

Actually, I said that wrong...

Space program and computers = good thing

Working on our infrastructure = also good thing

Spending all our money on other things (like a constant state of war) = bad

My comment was more of a question as to whether technology learned as a result of our space program would have been learned anyway, elsewhere.

Sure, but we got your point the first time, let it die man. Fucking bolded letters, that annoying once, twice is just...yeah. WE GET IT!!!

Anyways, yeah I think the ol' US should cut the defense budget a bit and end all this pork barrel bullshit, shunt the funds back into the Space Program. Theres so much out there we haven't seen, so much potential. It would also be pretty cool to see private involvement in exploring space. Someone besides the gov. funded programs needs to step up. Civilian exploration will yield results faster than the current system.
