One hesitates to comment immediately on some of the really stupid things that liberals and the Obama Administration do. One hesitates because you have to believe there is more to the story than what is initially reported. But it is true. Barack Obama does not want NASA to explore space, go to Mars, or even bring our rocket technology into the 21st century. No Barack Obama’s “foremost” mission for NASA is to “is to improve relations with the Muslim world.” This is the charge NASA director Charles Bolden received from Obama.

Now I have heard from some who have lived in the Arab world that we don’t really need to build up their self esteem. Muslims in a Muslim country tend to think that their culture is superior to anything the West has to offer. They see the West as the home of lazy, self absorbed, corrupt people. I also would have thought that the original Obama apology tour would have cured all of that anyway.

Still just what would the Muslim world contribute to a space expedition? How many suicide bombers can one attach to a rocket to achieve orbit status?

The legendary humor site Scrappleface has a great take on this as well.

One laughs at this stuff due to the absurdity of what is being proposed but keep in mind this really is our President’s idea of priorities.

I do have a suggestion for Obama however. Since we have now relegated our Main Space Expolotation Agency to become the feel good, touchy feely, version of a kid’s T-Ball league let’s go all the way.

Let’s do what we do for the T-Ball Kids, lets give a science trophy to all of the Muslim countries we have apologised to already. We can call this the Muslim country science award. This will recognize all of the significant advancements in Islamic countries of the last 500 years or so. Some might say this would be a meningless award but I say it will be no less meaningless than giving a Nobel Peace Prize to a lame brain who has accomplished nothing. Besides it will be a whole lot cheaper than sending one of these guys to the moon.

As I have posted on my own website, I will repeat again that Charlie Bolden must resign. What he said would be bad enough if NASA were thriving as it was just three years ago.

One year from now, Space Shuttles Discovery, Atlantis and Endeavour will be well into the process of being converted from what President Reagan called one of our “greatest national assets” into museum relics. This will happen despite the fact that there is no successor program even on the drawing board now and that the orbiters collectively have used barely one third of their design lives (38 of 100 for Discovery, 33 of 100 for Atlantis and 22 of 100 for Endeavour). The argument that the shuttles are old therefore carries no water even if their calendar ages are adding up (Discovery is 26 years old, Atlantis 25 and Endeavour is 18). But our military pilots are flying B-52′s that are well over fifty years old. The Air Force has no problem with that.

Charlie Bolden is talking about Muslim outreach, while he prepares to shut down America’s only access to space, with no replacement even under consideration. He’s about to turn over the keys to our space station, built with $100 billion of our money, over to the tender mercies of the Russians. And under our agreement with them, American astronauts will now be allocated less than forty percent of the available man hours on station. So long as its in the Russians’ interests to keep their word. There is still time to save the shuttle program and get its successor on track, but Congress must act soon, probably before the August recess to make that happen.

Bolden thinks his job is to make beautiful music with Muslims, while the space program is burning down around him. His virtuoso diplomatic performance appears to be going over as well in space as Nero’s last recital.

Arrogant billionaire Arabs strut smugly, flaunting their oil wealth; too bad they were too stupid to figure out how to get it out of the ground. Yeah, real geniuses.
