Newt Gingrich promises to build a moon colony
 

I guess Gingrich thinks he's the next JFK. LOL.

< news linkie >

Well that changed my vote.. Not.. he's getting desperate since the attack dogs are loose. I hope him and Romney keep it up and trip over each other so Paul can slip on by..

I'm guessing it's because he's in Florida today - NASA and all that...

Retarded..
Like he's gonna have money for a project like that in the economy we're in at the moment...

Great goals inspire people to do great things.

Like wasting money as much is possible and to great biggest debt ever :1orglaugh

Look up the term "useful idiot" as it applies to politics

Like we need a moon colony... what a fucking shithead!

We need to pull out of the Middle East... Let them do what they are going to do and then fuck them up like Hitler, Saddam, etc later...

Id be impressed if they would prove everyone wrong and actually do a new moon landing... they say we still don't have the technology lol

We had a moon colony since 1974, that's where the frozen body of Austin Powers is

lol..........

How is he supposed to do that while reducing the size of the government and reducing the debt?

Oh that's right. He is just promising to do those things, he won't actually do them.

If he had a moon colony he would have somewhere far away to send his ex wives. The man is thinking ahead.

I kind of like Gingrich, but can't tell if he's honest or just another good speaker/salesman.

We need to do that anyhow!

lol the fucking things these politicians say are ridiculous

To late



BTW: Iron Sky will premiere at the Berlinale this year

hahahaha!!!!! i like air too much no thanx

one day, he opposed the ryan plan, next day, supported it. pretty much says it all.

Another worthless politician wasting money :mad:

do not want.

I am all for space exploration and have been a huge fan of the shit NASA has done in 40 years. But its the last thing we need to be spending money on right now.

Exactly. Which is why I'm going for Ron Paul, the guy is obviously sincere about what he says, so much so that he stumbles over his words trying to quickly get it all out in the short time he gets to speak. We have no idea what the others plans really are once they make office. And the only argument people have against Ron is that he's old, or his eyebrow looks weird, or his posture is weird, or they found some racist shit in his newsletter 20 years ago that wasn't made by him. In other words a bunch of irrelevant shit.

not true at all. maybe some people don't want civil rights repealed, or health care, or environmental protections ... there are dozen of things that would make people not want to vote for him.

<Tinfoil Helmet on Head>You gotta love that crazy Giingrich!</Tinfoil Helmet on Head>

At least we know what he wants to do? And at the same time people say most of the shit he wants to do would never happen because it has to go through congress first. So if his goals are so bizarre that they wouldn't get passed, what is the problem? At least he is looking in the right direction.

I will admit I know fuck all about politics. But I am tired of listening to these scumbags talk about doing something and then do a 180 once they win. So I am going for the guy who is honest. And if he wins maybe we can convince him why he should change his plans in certain areas. At least he will listen to people and not bank accounts.

tragically , the moon doesn't give a fuck ... more bullshit "news" at 11.

anyone of those things i posted makes him un-electable for a large part of the population. most people don't want to roll back society to 1915.

So if he were elected, would he be able to actually accomplish any of those crazy things most people are against? Or just the other ones most people are for?

you can say that for any candidate. means nothing.

Not really, we know what Ron Paul wants to do, the others say a lot of nice things to get elected and then do whatever once they win. Oh well this is why I hate politics, the argument really goes nowhere, so I'm done..

That's the problem. What's it worth putting a colony on the moon? They've been there and found nothing worth having. Sending robots is way cheaper, better and safer than sending humans. Any new inventions that could come from this would of come if 1/4 of the money were spent on research.

This is the best man, or second best, the Republicans can put up?

Elect Ron

the moon is boring. The real action is on the saturn moon titan, which has lakes of liquid natural gas, & a killer view of the sky :thumbsup

:1orglaugh

And pay for it how? Maybe with the funds Bush wanted to use to send a man to Mars?

Haha I was thinking the same thing. The Nazis already did that shit!

When I lived in FL it was like clock work every time someone was campaigning for the oval office they would always have some speech about how they were gonna do this and that with the space programs.

Almost none of them ever did what they claimed they would, but hey what else is new with politicians.

I am shocked that the republican party has pinned their hopes on the weakest possible people to represent them for the presidential run.

You would think they would have thrown everything at finding a rockstar to nail the win ..but no.

I'm not a republican at all .. hard core democrat and just shocked at how the republican party is so out of touch with reality when the run for the top job is the prize.

the moon colony would be cool...apparently they can get access to helium3 in vast quantities.
also would make space mining easier if there was an actual base up there for processing etc....leave the waste, take the goods home via spacial elevator.

i dont think he is the man for the job, as he looks like a mouth breather, however while spending lots of money, if all jobs were housed in the usa, it would put money back into the economy for people who actually pay taxes in the usa. I believe a new space race like this would also spur technology growth again, and provide a host of cures and advances in science and medicine.

I own some good parked lunar domains that have been getting some serious traffic from companies like GE the past few weeks.

Always a consideration

Got more to add? would love to read it.

Newt finally says something smart
 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helium-3

Moon has lots of Helium 3, could safely power our planet for years.
NASA creates great paying jobs for scientists and technicians even secretaries.

Quit being so shortsighted.

That. Fucking. Name.

Should've just called himself Captain Lizard G. Amphibian. Fucking clown. :321GFY

Gingrich is a tool. Then again so is Romney.

He is a real fuck wad... The best answer last night is when they asked the idiots what would they do if Castro called, Paul said "What did you call about, can I help you... all the others said shit,,, Obama walks back into the Presidency till 2012...
