Woah Doug, don't hold back tell us what you really think.

Doesn't the stupid idiot realise you can't spend money in space and that every single penny of the NASA budget is spent ON THE GROUND.

Doug

That was exactly my reaction and is exactly what I relate to people too. Not one penny is put inside a space capsule at the launch pad. Diverting money away from NASA has NOT led to solving earths problem. Its just the opposite in fact !

Its quite sad, pathetic, coming from the network of the news giant and space enthusiast Walter Cronkite

Doug: dont ban yourself its exactly what we all think.

My reaction was similar to most of you: what a bul... <censored>.

What is sad is that even if we all agree on that this are bad and wrong news and even we can see her blog almost full of complains from people who are really aware about the fact that this money is worth put on space related things and not spent elsewhere, the average people seeing her on the news will still think: "well, she should be right, shouldn't?".
