Sorry, but this is sheer lunacy. There are TONS of other programs Obama could cut to pay for his education plan. Tons.

We've pretty much explored planet Earth, and space should be next on the list. But it sure won't help when political leaders feel the need to hold us back from doing that.

Ugh.

Now, on to something I can agree with.
This statement is such BS. We don't know a thing about this planet. Biologists think we've discovered less than 10% of Earth's species and have studied in-depth less than 1%. I say we get to know a lot more about our home, the cradle of all human life, before we starting frivolously spending billions of dollars to go visit the Moon. And for what?
