I posted on 12-27- Great story it is- Bush wants a moon colony.

apnews.myway.com... www.theage.com.au... news.bbc.co.uk... www.usatoday.com... www.chron.com... Lot's of coverage today. ATSNN.com was among the few news websites covering this yesterday.

Hmm, I thought there already was a thread about this, and I couldve swore I responded in it...

Anyways, I think I said...

Do you think he is only doing this because China wishes to do this as well?

Maybe Sadaam has WMDs on the moon and we need to invade it immediately before they can be used against us!!! Maybe he should worry more about fixing the mess he made in Iraq and fixing the economy!

I have several problems with this:

1. The space budget would be increased in stages for at least the next five years, looking toward the first manned lunar landing of the 21st century in 2013, UPI reported.

2013!? Why should we wait that long when:

A certain professor, who wished to remain anonymous, was engaged in a discussion with Neil Armstrong during a NASA symposium.


Professor: What REALLY happened out there with Apollo 11? Armstrong: It was incredible, of course we had always known there was a possibility, the fact is, we were warned off!(by the Aliens). There was never any question then of a space station or a moon city. Professor: How do you mean "warned off"?


Armstrong: I can't go into details, except to say that their ships were far superior to ours both in size and technology - Boy, were they big!...and menacing! No, there is no question of a space station.


Professor: But NASA had other missions after Apollo 11?


Armstrong: Naturally - NASA was committed at that time, and couldn't risk panic on Earth. But it really was a quick scoop and back again.


Armstrong confirmed that the story was true but refused to go into further detail, beyond admitting that the CIA was behind the cover-up.

I sounds to me like a lie and reason just waste and use more of our tax money.
