My dad worked for nasa for 20 years. He worked on the space shuttle, the apollos, and the budget committee. He said that nasa always asked for less than what they really wanted because the president would never give them as much as they wanted.triple said:And you know this how?

how about solving the problems on earth before trying to play the space explorers.
sure, scientific progress is nice, and needed, but at what price? those billions spent on it seems like alot :\

But I am just going off someone who was on the budget committee.
well lets see here... I WAS FUCKING 10 YOU DUMB ASS.triple said:which begs the question, if you're this pissed when nasa gets exactly what they asked for, where the fuck were you when clinton slashed 715 million? where were you when he cut the budget 7 out of 8 years he was in office?
here we are, nasa gets a budget increase from a republican, (which is actually not a huge surprise since nasa is based in houston and florida, which both had bush leadership) and ZOMGWTF
(oh, and im not calling you a liar, but your "dad", who just happened to work on the budget, is a bit too convenient.)

triple said:I just think its a bit too fishy that, when questioned about his knowledge of the nasa budget, ratbert suddenly blurts out that his dad worked for nasa, on the budget.
That's a bit.. out there.
