The Punning Pundit: Up up and away!

July 26, 2005

Discovery is in orbit. About frickin’ time...

The space shuttle is old, and needs replacing. However, for the moment they are what we have. And space is important...

Here is a question for all you fine folks: How much would you pay in extra taxes each year to send a mission to Mars?

Depends, am I allowed to take the money from programs that I DON'T support?

I'd probably be willing to put in on order of tens of dollars in taxes to put a man on mars.

Dazed,
Nope, you only get to shell out more cash, not take money from PBS. Let’s be honest-- that’s where the money would come from...

let's see - the cost of the war is at 183,811,900,000 and going up as I type this.

I don't think we have any money at all ...
