Obama Moves To Link Pentagon With NASA
Amiga Trombone sends this quote from the beginning of a story at Bloomberg:
"President-elect Barack Obama will probably tear down long-standing barriers between the US's civilian and military space programs to speed up a mission to the moon amid the prospect of a new space race with China. Obama's transition team is considering a collaboration between the Defense Department and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration because military rockets may be cheaper and ready sooner than the space agency's planned launch vehicle, which isn't slated to fly until 2015, according to people who've discussed the idea with the Obama team."
Why though? In Star Trek there is only one Federation. All the ships are military, at least they all carry weapons.
They may come in peace but that is only Plan A.

Troll moderators can mod the post down, but it doesn't change the essential fact that we are about to see at least 4 years to hypocrisy and double standards.
Obama and his Chicago mob cronies ARE going to do things that if were done by Bush, would cause the left to go apoplectic. But there will be nary a word from the Left, or at worst, an expression of mild disappointment.
Get yer popcorn and sodas because the next 4 years will be a great show.
When Fascism comes to America, it will call itself Anti-Fascism, and tell you to give up your guns.
