Cancelling the space shuttle was really fair enough, but this could actually do some real science.

Isnt that what those science/rocket geeks told us that unmanned shit would be oh so much better spent money than manned missions. This seems to show the hypothesis that the ones that pay for those useless manned missions thinks that unmanned science missions are so boring that they are even less willing to pay for them. So in a sense the manned useless missions pay for the boring useful ones.

Interesting theory, but I don't think Dorsey is a "typical teabagger."
The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar
