The Martian atmosphere isn't sufficient to provide enough shielding for humans to be on the surface for more than 15 minutes total with the man-made radiation shielding technology for space suits existing today. Unless some underground caverns could be found or if some pretty heavy, and expensive, machinery were sent ahead to burrow tunnels for EVAs, the journey would be 1-2 years to get there, go outside one time only for 15 minutes, then sit inside and control robots for exploration and research; which is what we are doing now; then spend another 1-2 years for the return trip. So Jr. Bush wants some astronauts to spend 2-4 years of their lives for 15 minutes of fame.

No, that would be piss taster at Coors. ;)
I'm just guessing here, but it sounds to me like somebody has had some less than good experiences with Java.
