1. Just can't resist using Jesus as a political ploy....
Obviously he has no belief in the competency of the "scientists" at NASA. Or maybe Jesus will carry the shuttle down to earth as he returns to smite all us liberals.

say the other day that they are getting ready to stage a failure of this launch so Bush can go on T.V. and sport crocodile tears?

15. Or it could be an excellent opportunity for the military to take
full control of NASA to fix things there. The goal of space research for BushCo is militarization, nothing else.

3. Guess he didn't pray hard enough for the safe return
of those soldiers. Oh well, VACATION TIME!

7. Ambrose Bierce defined prayer
PRAYER: (v.) To ask that the laws of the universe be annulled in behalf of a single petitioner admittedly unworthy. He don't need no science or engineering.

10. if you pray to get well, and then you don't, does god owe you one?
i don't get it. but you're right, and when people live through plane crashes, angels were watching over them, but not the victims.

12. The odds of going to Iraq and coming back alive
aren't too far off those of being launched into space at 18000mph and doing the same.

4. that man is such a joke
not a funny joke....but still a joke and that the press prints a single word he says as if the man is to be taken seriously is mind boggling... America is run by a buffoon..a dangerous buffoon, but still a buffoon...he should be openly mocked in the press and rightly so

11. Pray in secret as Jesus instructed, you self-righteous son of a bitch.
(He's used to keeping things secret, after all.)

13. Chimp prays every day that
clueless Americans continue to believe he's actually performing the duties of President. Just another WH pr effort to convince the fundies that chimp gives a shit. Meanwhile he's settling in with his stash of bourbon for a nice, long five week bender.
