Good-bye Discovery -- end of expansion?

Well, today the space shuttle Discovery was retired, rode to Washington DC, and eventually the Smithsonian, on the back of a 747 or some kinda jumbo jet.

Sort of sad to see it go. It's the end of government-funded space exploration.

Must say, I'm not surprised the Comrade put an end to it. The so-called "Progressives" have always hated the space program. "How can you spend so much on that stuff when people are starving?" they asked.

Kind of like Queen Isabella telling Columbus, "Actually, the treasury would be better spent shoveling horse manure from our streets."

And the Comrade calls conservative "flat-earthers."

Some nerve, huh?

Save the Republic.
