@Rand_Simberg Every politician of every party says stuff like that: we must continue as normal to show terrorism doesn’t win blah blah blah

@kchangnyt I've pretty much given up on figuring out the degree to which the president (in his own words) "believes his own bullshit."

@Rand_Simberg It must kill you that w/o Obama, there would be no commercial crew and Ares I would still be Plan A.

@kchangnyt Yes, I'm very grateful that he doesn't give a shit about space. If he did, he'd probably screw it up. But he hired Lori.

@Rand_Simberg No president since LBJ, R or D, has cared much about space. And W. gave you Griffin.

@kchangnyt I agree. But actually, Reagan did. He pushed for the Commercial Space Launch Act, and got it.

@kchangnyt And actually, I don't know whether we wouldn't have commercial crew without Obama. Hard to do that counterfactual.

@Rand_Simberg Hillary would have pushed it, but no R not named Newt.
