President Obama’s “foremost” charge to NASA Administrator Charles Bolden (as Bolden told Al Jazeera): “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.” Just like President Kennedy’s charge to NASA 50 years ago…
To Infinity and Beyond?
By Asher Embry
Our heroes once were astronauts and NASA was our
pride.
Barack now sees it differently, with other “missions” eyed.
The tasks they’ve now been given are irrelevant and
strange.
Obama wants their focus aimed at tracking climate
change.
“The Right Stuff” has been canceled and O’s buried every
trace.
We’ll count on Russian cosmonauts to ferry us to space.
We grew up with the Moon our goal, and space flight was our
dream.
Now NASA’s chief priority is Muslim self-esteem.

Never one to miss an opportunity to so publicly and emphatically demean and degrade our country, Obama hits a new low here. Just when you think it can't get any worse, it does . . . .
ruk9p| 7.6.10 @ 9:52PM
He's now chasing legislation that will basically allows him to purwue the ability turn off the global internet, all by himself by emergency decree. Ladies & gentlemen this is a the setup for a slaughter you wouldn't believe. Until friends wives & kids are dropping all around you. I don't DO "alarmist". Will somebody please?

It would seem intuitive for Americans to want the man removed from office as quickly as possible, but a majority of Americans still stick by him. Is this admirable? Perhaps they simply fear Biden in the office. It is difficult to believe we elected them both.

Actually, Don, most polls, including Gallup and Rasmussen, put Obama's approval rating well BELOW 50% . . .Clearly, a majority of Americans do NOT "stick by him."

At best, Obama is an idiot and should have his own village. At worst, Obama knows exactly what he is doing, destroying a once great country.
