Default Bought Senators claim 'commercial crew sucks'

http://www.spaceflightnow.com/news/n...ommercialcrew/

It once again shows that the U.S. Congress is simply filled with a
bunch of corrupt CROOKS doing the bidding of Boeing and Lockeed-Martin.
They have been instructed to simply KILL COTS since they themselves
can't compete against a company like SpaceX. If they succeed they'll
once again charge tens of billions to develop spacecraft which were
developed in months instead of decades in the 1960's. SLS for example
is simply a rehashed Space Shuttle, yet it will take more than a decade
for it to take crew into orbit (the first 'dummy' test flight is slated
for 2017; 'dummy' because it won't be using the J2X which itself has
been in development for over 7 years and won't be finished by 2017,
even though it's simply an upgraded version of the 1960's J2 engine).

McAlister is simply being prudent when he says that 'some people in
Congress are not comfortable with COTS,' he's obviously too afraid to
accuse the Senators of being corrupt croonies.

So now these Senators are trying to slash the COTS budget to the bone
so they can later accuse comapnies like SpaceX of 'underperforming' and
'taking too long' to get results.

congress is BOUGHT AND PAID FOR BY HE PEOPLE CONTRIBUTING MONEY FOR
THEIR CAMPAIGNS!

Strict term limits, and campaign spending limits, and the end of super
packs is the only thing that can makke congress effective
again..........

it will likely take the total collapse of the US to fix
things.........

our country is screwed

Yes, I am bad. Really bad.

Not even the holy ghost of the "free entreprise" warms me up.

Specially when the "free" entreprise can exist only if the
taxpayer finances it.

Pouring public money into private pockets is the norm nowadays.

Those that protest are bad people, they are against capitalism
at its best: public money into private pockets.
