Another example of the consequences of the election of Obama.
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/07 ... s-muslims/
Unreal. And there are those who thought that voting for Obama was the better choice of "two evils"?
Somehow I believe that a President McCain's NASA chief would have been talking about keeping the USA at the lead of space exploration. We are indeed living in a very screwed up time. This fall's elections will be the last chance to get things back on track.

Just the cherry on top that BSmack would be in here sniffing for a (D) to felch in this deal.

NASA Administrator wrote:"When I became the NASA administrator -- or before I became the NASA administrator -- he [President Obama] charged me with three things. One was he wanted me to help re-inspire children to want to get into science and math, he wanted me to expand our international relationships, and third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science ... and math and engineering," Bolden said in the interview.
You mean the history dating back to when they were actually quite civilized and advanced, before some camel fukking warlord from the desert plunged them into the dark ages?

How 'bout if somebody throws you a CLUE, asshat?
http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/news_s ... tries.html
This was not some gibbering idiot going off on his own to "throw a bone" to someone, but a good little lapdog who was given the
"make muslim outreach a priority for the agency" directive from his commander.
Hence the
"The foremost mission of NASA is to make the muslims feel goooooood about themselves" comments from Bolden in the Al Jizzera interview.
What a COMPLETELY humiliating laff that is at Barry's expense.
I've seen grade school administrations with more on the ball than this current group of Washington thumb-suckers.
Felch away, you pitifully deluded toolshed.

And again, what the fuck is so bad about reaching out to other countries? They can help absorb costs, provide brain power and become more wired to the global system. This is not only how you make it more feasible to conduct space missions, it is also how you combat anti-Americanism and terrorism.

Love Baghdad Bob Gibbs' answer when asked,
"Has Obama spoken to Bolden about his comments?"
Gibbs:
I don't believe so.
So the head of NASA TWICE makes the same public remarks about, supposedly now, the INCORRECT objective of the organization, and Barry hasn't spoken to him about it.
Administration FAIL.

Bsmack, I appreciate and understand the concept. I too am an idealist. But in these times, one must be a realist also.
Islamic countries want to reduce the world back to the 6th or 5th century. That makes it easy for them to control it. The list of Muslim leaders that want a space program for any other reason than for dropping bombs on heathens/jews/anyone that doesn't think and believe what they do is really damn short. I really like that my wife and daughters do NOT have to wear a chador, and that if one
doesn't believe that the former Persian Moon god that is Allah, all of a sudden in 750 became "GOD", isn't going to have thier head slowly sawed off. And what that assbackwards "philosophy" has to do with space flight....is beyond me. The brain power they have is mostly used to kill anyone that doesn't think and believe like and how they do, so please don't even try to be an apologist for those murderous screwheads, because if they were to come into power, you would probably be right at the top of list to become the next PEZ dispenser look alike , because you disagree with Sharia law, or hell...anything those fucknuts would think of.
How about....'freedom'. Of thought, expression, and the rights of women? Those morons consider women just below camels and donkeys. So fuck them, fuck anyone that agrees with them, and I really wish NASA could build a smart bomb that targets the brains of those mysogonist terrorist fuckwads, flies into the tents/hovels or whatever those stinky bearded murderers live in, and takes them out, so the rest of the world can live in peace. Because until that happens, the brain damaged 'religion' that is called Islam, will plague this planet for generations. Scientology makes more sense than the stupidity that is Islam. And that is as mind numbing as anything any human has come up with yet. But John Travolta and Tom Cruise both think that slowly sawing the heads off of non-scientoligists if fucking wrong.
And, they don't like America, then DON'T COME HERE, and especially, do NOT take our aid, money, or any other kind of help. If I could make one law, it would be to cut off ALL 'aid' to the countries that hate our guts. Fuck them and let them rot.
Rant over.

For starters, 50% of the Muslim population are female. You know right off the bat that the vast majority of them want nothing to do with having to wear fucking beekeeper suits 24-7. Add to that any man who doesn't want to live in a crappy 14th century shithole and I'll take my chances on the vast majority of Muslims not wanting to follow bin Laden and the rest of the Al Queda sociopaths down the rabbit hole.

I can just see the B-Smack types in the early stages of Nazi Germany. "Why those people wouldn't follow that nut job with the goofy mustache"---- well ? Dream on Bri. The majority of them would just as soon slit your throat and your wife and kid if it came down to it. It would take more than good vibes and singing Kumbaya with them to make them change their minds. Look what it took to convert the militaristic mind set in WW2 Germany and Japan.

WTF does Nazi Germany have to do with this? The Nazis took over because they had the backing of institutional power brokers who were scared shitless of Communists and preferred to take their chances with Hitler. They also thought (wrongly) that they could manipulate and control Hitler.
There is no comparison between our reaction to Hitler in the 30s and our reaction to Islamic extremists. We have dismantled AQ in Iraq (after creating the conditions for their insurgency to begin with), we have surrounded and isolated Iran and fomented revolution within its borders and now AQ in Afghanistan is under siege yet again. We are doing anything but singing Kumbaya with the folks who legitimately want war with the west.
So I ask again, where is the proof that all or a vast majority of Muslims want to slit our throats? Take your time fucknuts.

How does one "go on record"?
Have you ever "gone on record" about anything?
"Uh hello...is this the New York Times? Well, yes, I'm a typical Muslim, no doubt a member of the majority of Muslims. I'd like to go on record condemning Bin Laden and His Kind. Yes. On the front page please. Next Monday? Ok, thanks."

The relevant comparison is between the "vast majority" of Germans who didn't want anything to do with Nazis. It didn't really matter in the end. That small percentage of true believers was enough to take the rest of them off the cliff.

No it wasn't. Without the help of middle of the road Germans who feared a leftist takeover, there would have never been a Nazi state. Also, the Nazis enjoys a modicum of electoral success, something that Al Queda will never be able to claim.

They were extreme right wing National Socialists--in the manner of Zionists or Christer fascists like Oliver North. Mostly they were thugs--that is, the SA, the huge working class "brownshirt" contingent organized and run by Ernst Roem.

Uhm... no.
The Nazi Party came into power due to the financial assreaming/depression they were left with
after losing a bigazz war.
I don't care what fucking degree you have (ask for your money back), or what you
think happened...
people resort to extremism if, and only if they're in dire straights.
Period, EOS.
Hopefully, we've learned a thing or two (although apparently not much, since we couldn't keep our hands off their resources after WWII, just as we won't now).
And, Crisco -- to describe the Nazi Party as "far right," or whatever ridiculous stupidity you assigned is pretty comical, and a severe self-clowning (as per usualm).
That would be one of the more examples of
left-wing politics that mankind has ever seen (although Stalin upped the stakes).
I'm what you'd call an "extreme right winger"... and the idea of attacking a country that is not a direct threat is offensive to me... as is just about any notion of "better living through bigger government."

Pretty basic shit.
Or, you can get all complicated, and define the Left aswanting more government control; the Right, less.
It seems YOU (and hundreds of millions of others) are the one violating "tradition."

Total gibberish, Dins. The Nazis were of course extremely right wing, as were other National Socialists like the Zionist movement. Why do you suppose they hated the Communists so much? Or what, aren't Communists "left wing"? In fact extreme leftists and rightists tend to meet up in a variety of similarities--starting with total military control over the entire populace. Sure, Pinochet worked hand in glove with transnational corporations, and Castro has not--but the total military control over anything that might hint of opposition is the same. So...Pinochet wasn't right wing either?
What is your malignant trip of completely inverting everything? Just like Rove--and Goebbels, hmmm... :wink:
