Obama's Great NASA Plan. Charles Bolden to Manage Massage Parlour for Bruised Muslim Egos.

In a speech last month for Al-Jeezera, Charles Bolden, Obama's appointed new head of NASA, revealed that the President told him that his most important task was " To reach out to the Muslim world and engage with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math and engineering "

How touching. But what, one wonders, has this groveling ego massaging endeavour to do with the organisation that put humans on the moon? Well, having cancelled all manned expeditions beyond earth orbit as well as most research into new space technology, Obama,( who couldn't quite get away with simply closing the agency down ), had to find some use for the now moribund outfit. His solution is to make it the " scientific " arm of the State Department's Muslim Affairs Section. Although the scheme has zero scientific merit it has one great virtue; its as cheap as a comb full of dandruff.
