Re: US Sent $221 Million to Palestinians

GOOD! Instead of sending our tax money to a bunch of RAG HEAD TERRORISTS in "Palestine" they should send it to the ISRAELIS who have been battling the same terrorism we now face for decades, and who is actually our BEST FRIEND in the Middle East. Sick and tired of OUR MONEY being used to s...

Yeah... I read that post and thought "WTF" as the syntax was VERY confusing (like from a translation program, and a pretty shitty one at that... ) then I saw the links and it all made sense... Geez... WTF is wrong with these people... I really don't understand spammers... do they think tha...

Re: Enough of the robots, let's put people back in space!

As for the companies "going mum", well, I don't think it's as much about "thier favorite guy not winning" as it is "politics as usual". Getting a CCDev (or whatever their calling it nowdays-- commercial crew development) contract is a double-edged sword... NASA very muc...

Re: Enough of the robots, let's put people back in space!

Well, he's saying all the right things, anyway. When I toured KSC several years ago, I made it a point to ask several of the "old timers" who were guiding the various tours we went on about their feelings and prognostications regarding SLS. None seemed particularly enthusiastic about it or...

Re: Enough of the robots, let's put people back in space!

Their CCDev (or whatever they're calling it now) contract is TOTALLY SEPARATE from their COTS (space station resupply) contracts. SO, they "couldn't just stick a guy in there and send him to the station" even if they wanted to... NASA would never stand for it. I agree that it's rather ridi...

Re: ‘Moon Express’ Secures Funding in Race to Mine the Moon

I dunno... it's a shame because Quest basically seems to be "in the freezer" with nothing much going on, and it don't look like it's gonna come out anytime soon.

Re: Is Info Wars no longer just conspiracy reporting?

I don't pay much attention to talking heads... too many "empty suits" around and most of what you read and here nowdays is utter BS anyway.

Re: Why President Trump is truly unique (and why you should give him some credit)

Like most things, I'll believe it when I see it.

I don't put faith in ANYBODY anymore. It's all BS until I SEE otherwise...
