Re: McCain Would Like To See A Man On Mars
Or Bush...
or both :wink:
I'm not an Obama supporter but ...stick him on the moon with GWB? Too cruel.....
McCain is starting to sound a little daffy. Is he trying to attract the Bush crowd?
I did like his role in Diehard however.
Yeah, Obama, for sure.
The effort to go to Mars has been ongoing for several decades. The ISS will provide the launchpad for the eventual mission. They may in fact attempt to establish a base on the moon first.
I think "let's go to Mars!" is a poor man's attempt at having vision. Kennedy used the "let's go to the Moon!" as a cold war gambit, so how everyone and their dad thinks that issuing a call to do something extravegant is showing leadership.
Maybe I'll run on a "Let's Raise Atlantis" platform...

Maybe he should just stand up at lunch and yell "Food fight!"

Count me out of that logic. As well as my dad.

Let's do it! Cheaper, more fun and more worthwhile than going to Mars. We'll get hell from Europe for wasting food with all the rising prices worldwide and all, but McCain can stare them down.
McCain Would Like To See A Man On Mars
Well . . . let's put his ass on a rocket and shoot him up there . . . then he can see anybody he believes is up there, including his imaginary friends . . .
I say, good riddance . . .
I think this is vitally important to our National Interests.
Imagine what would happen if the Terrorists got to Mars before us...
Actually it is. Mineral rights ya know. And for the long term expansion and survival of the human race.
well let me know how it is up there. send back a full report... real estate prices... beach front is a must for me...
Purpose is a good thing. How should I put this... Purpose, for lack of a better word is a good thing. I mean, outlaw guns, give folks free healthcare, what are we really doing? Making it differentially easier to be a fat useless sack of crap with an iPod. Aim the GDP at something in the way of an accomplishment on the other hand - another sign of Big Mack being in the right frame of mind.
