Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Ala.) said Monday that President Obama's proposed cancellation of the Constellation program would be "the death march for the future of U.S. human space flight.""We cannot continue to coddle the dreams of rocket hobbyists and so-called 'commercial' providers who claim the future of U.S. human space flight can be achieved faster and cheaper than Constellation," Shelby said. "I have consistently stated the fallacy of believing the cure-all hype of these ‘commercial’ space companies, and my position has been supported time and again by both the experts and the facts."
So let me get this straight. A Republican, who probably believes that the government can not (or should not) provide health care insurance to the citizens of this country, thinks that the government should be in charge of space exploration? Private enterprise is better suited to providing something that nearly everyone needs, but is not equipped to provide something that almost nobody needs?
You sir, are a dipshit. Or a weasel. Or both. I think we should stop coddling professional polititians and the states they represent.
