I’ve already suggested late-night DJ on KFI or another right-wing station, he’d probably be good at keeping folks awake on those long drives… May not pay much, but he has bragged about the pension he’s looking forward to! (At a local liquor store he recently sounded off to a friend of ours “You know what the best thing is about a government job? The pension!”)
A few people have called the Debbie office with the same point, Carl. Debbie’s actually a big supporter of NASA and knows that there is a danger from asteroids. Her position is just that there are much more urgent problems that Dana has been ignoring for decades – kids without health insurance, folks losing their homes, war with no end in sight…. Plus we all love his little spaceship in that ad!
Rohrabacher is on the mark about the potential threat of killer asteroids.
U.N. Urged to Take Action Against Killer Asteroids
Experts, including former American astronaut Rusty Schweickart, told U.N. officials Tuesday that the international community needs a plan to counter so-called Near Earth Objects in advance of the potential catastrophe.
The report, among other things, calls for an international decision-making program within the framework of the United Nations to decide on actions to counter asteroids.
Schweickart acknowledged that devastating collisions happen “very infrequently” but warned the risk could not be ignored.
Hehe. I couldn’t help but giggle for the Rohrabacher Asteroid spaceship
I wonder what kind of work Dana will do after he’s defeated? Would you hire this man?

In reality Asteroids’ are a very real threat to planet earth. Anyone in denial of this scientifically supported theory is really dumbing down the debate. Killer asteroids’ are widely thought to be the smoking gun behind the end of dinosaurs’ or at the very least, there is a great deal of evidence to support the argument.
It’s not a new theory either if you follow the links below …. And these are NOT flakes either, Nasa, National Geographic, NPR, etc.

While the risks of many of these objects is slight, it only takes one “unknown object” to ruin your whole millennia.
Just ask Dino, yabba dabba doo….
Maybe Dana isn’t as dumb as you and Debbie make him out to be in some regards.
I thought Debbie Cook was up on her science…?
Is she in denial of the scientific evidence?
Or is she just going after the uneducated voters?
Asteroids are a far greater danger than this supposed “man made global warming” that there is far less continuing scientific evidence of.
Ummm Carl, its “Asteroids” the old video game…
Gotcha! That would have been funny though
