Default U.S. breaks with Russia, too bad they can't launch astronauts now...

NASA, sitting around twiddling their thumbs, wondering if they can divert ISS business to global warming studies.

Liberals used to complain: "Why are we spending so much money in space, when there are so many problems to solve on Earth?"

Their unwillingness to replace the Shuttle has resulted in a great irony...they didn't spend money in space, so now they have less opportunity to solve problems on Earth!

Of course liberals don't -really- care about global warming, except to the extent that they can use it for political or personal gain.

There is no coincidence the global warming "fight" began in earnest shortly after the Soviet Union fell. The great socialist dream was finally dead, they had to look for another avenue to re-distribute wealth on a global scale while enriching themselves with money and power.
