Learning something?
NRO reports that Rick Perry strongly criticizes Obama for shutting down the Shuttle.
Hey! This is progress! A Repooflican declares that public services should remain public! Criticizes Obama for privatizing a public service!
Well then, can we expect Repooflicans to start supporting mass transit as well? After all, mass transit helps lots of ordinary Americans to work and live their lives, while space transit only helps a few very unusual people to indulge a very unusual fetish. Those people are rich enough to indulge on their own. Obama has quite properly decided to let them do it, while the Repoofs want taxpayers to continue subsidizing this bizarre and unproductive luxury. ¶ 3:42 PM
