(CNSNews.com) -- Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Chairman John D. Rockefeller (D.-W.V.) says he is “a substantial skeptic of human spaceflight” and that not all outlets for American exploration are “glorious.”
Rockefeller made his remarks during a hearing last week where astronauts Neil Armstrong, the first man on the moon, and Eugene Cernan, the last man on the moon, testified against President Barack Obama’s fiscal year 2011 budget because it would cancel NASA’s Constellation manned space program.

white-imperialism bump.
What a small, horrible man.
Ping.
Asshole is on the “America is full of losers and not so great bandwagon”.
Rockefeller just wishes that the cash were going into his pocket.
Just like the PBS show my wife was watching where the one host (and the most liberal) described De Soto’s invasion of Fl.
And what has this thug ever done besides grow up.
The mentality of WDC needs an enema.
During the hearing, did the democrats play the song “Whitey’s On the Moon” by Gil Scott Heron?
I think that’s one of the funniest songs I have ever heard.
Are the Rockefeller’s still rich?
Whitey on the Moon
A rat done bit my sister Nell.
(with Whitey on the moon)
Her face and arms began to swell.
(and Whitey’s on the moon)
I can’t pay no doctor bill.
(but Whitey’s on the moon)
Ten years from now I’ll be payin’ still.
(while Whitey’s on the moon)
The man jus’ upped my rent las’ night.
(’cause Whitey’s on the moon)
No hot water, no toilets, no lights.
(but Whitey’s on the moon)
I wonder why he’s uppi’ me?
(’cause Whitey’s on the moon?)
I wuz already payin’ ‘im fifty a week.
(with Whitey on the moon)
Taxes takin’ my whole damn check,
Junkies makin’ me a nervous wreck,
The price of food is goin’ up,
An’ as if all that shit wuzn’t enough:
A rat done bit my sister Nell.
(with Whitey on the moon)
Her face an’ arm began to swell.
(but Whitey’s on the moon)
Was all that money I made las’ year
(for Whitey on the moon?)
How come there ain’t no money here?
(Hmm! Whitey’s on the moon)
Y’know I jus’ ‘bout had my fill
(of Whitey on the moon)
I think I’ll sen’ these doctor bills,
Airmail special
(to Whitey on the moon)
Have you seen the story of NASSA?
It was a different time then, 1957 or ‘58....
should "gloriously"....burn in hell....when their time comes.
Jay Rockerfeller would be an insignificant human being if he had not been born into wealth. He has not added anything of worth even with his wealth!!!
Other than bimbos and tax shelters Senator, what the h*** have YOU ever explored?
One of the funniest things I have ever seen.
Absolutely.
