When you think of NASA, what do you think of? Greatness? Power? Innovation? Well, according to the Obama administration, it's none of that.
From the San Fransico Exminer and Byron York: In a far-reaching restatement of goals for the nation’s space agency, NASA administrator Charles Bolden says President Obama has ordered him to pursue three new objectives: to “re-inspire children” to study science and math, to “expand our international relationships,” and to “reach out to the Muslim world.” Of those three goals, Bolden said in a recent interview with al-Jazeera, the mission to reach out to Muslims is “perhaps foremost,” because it will help Islamic nations “feel good” about their scientific accomplishments. In the same interview, Bolden also said the United States, which first sent men to the moon in 1969, is no longer capable of reaching beyond low earth orbit without help from other nations.Read more at the San Francisco Examiner: http://www.sfexaminer.com/opinion/blogs/beltway-confidential/obamas-new-mission-for-nasa-reach-out-to-muslim-world-97785979.html#ixzz0sskHlADE
This is shameful, just shameful. First, this Bolden gives this information al-Jazeera instead of say, Time Magazine or Wall Street Journal. Of how about Popular Science or other science magazine.
The United States space program used to be the best in the world, bar none. Now, it's not only the best, now we are average, at best.
You cannot blame Bush at all on this one. This is totally on Obama.
NASA administrator, Charles Bolden should have resigned when he was given this directive, if he had any pride in NASA.
While I am not a "birther", my goodness Obama has given so much ammunition to those who believe he is part Muslim.
Obama, worst president ever.
