It was more of general observation that had to be some place, so why not here?

[star seed 7]

[star seed 7]

He has nothing to work with.

Sounds like Ted has the right idea for NASA.

In his statement, which was titled "Focus NASA on Its Core Mission: Exploring Space, and More of It," Cruz said he wants to expand the US space program.

Awesome. But I hope Cruz realizes we also have to pay for it. I wish he had said something along the lines of "We need to get back to doing more 'America - eff Yeah' things and spending less money on dumb crap like studying global warming and doling out food stamps."

Letting people starve on earth while paying billions for trial and error doesn't seem like the right thing to do.

A balanced approach will do, and heck you could probably increase both if we got out of a country or two.

It's just a shame that this administration only wants NASA to advance the administrations environmental agenda.

Its too early....but is this serious, I mean serious, serious? 
Come on dude, don't you hold a college degree?

Scaling back food stamps and other entitlements is "letting people starve." :eyeroll:

Why on earth would anyone be against spending money to study global warming?

[steve dave]

I mean, wouldn't both sides of that argument be for better and more meaningful data?

[CNS]

NASA is currently studying how to efficiently feed ppl on super long range space missions(mars).  You don't think that could be helpful in feeding the hungry?

Until we fix our trade policy and value workers instead of stock trades  then it's not helping.

I don't think anyone on earth is against studying global warming.

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

You don't think it's odd that the one agency charged with studying everything except the globe, has been repurposed to study global warming.  I feel like we already have a "weather department".

Democrat in the inner circle of any issue whip people up into a frenzy until they demand goverment action and then use the federal government as a cash cow or a platform for their socialist religion.;

I think it is because the data from space might be showing more heat entering earth than leaving, while our thermometers here planetside are showing ice cold temps, thus disproving greenhouse gas theory as well as all of that first law of thermodynamics hullabaloo.
