Boeing paid cronies in Congresss are at it again
"Anne Onime" wrote in message ... http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0711/59647.html A senator and a former astronaut both advocate killing NASA's involvment in supporting commercial space. http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0711/59647.html Rep Pete Olsen (R-Texas) according to the article. But wait, does he or doesn't he support commercial space? "Rep. Pete Olson (R-Sugar Land) applauded The Boeing Company in Houston for recently receiving a $92.3 million NASA award for the Commercial Crew Development (CCDev2) program." http://olson.house.gov/index.cfm?sec...158&itemid=635 He's on the fence I guess, both sides~ s s I predicted right in this NG that this would happen and that Boeing and L-M are probably behind it. Both feel threatened by SpaceX and are now blatantly ordeirng their paid cronies in Congress to pass legislation that would kill them.
