Tragedy to further agendas
The shuttle is gone. No one could have survived. The talking heads used the word terror a couple of times. Canadian news is reporting the cause could have been American Arrogance. Apparently, not enough humility was loaded in the cargo hold.
People are blaming Bush. Awful. And more talking heads are using this as an opportunity to bring NASA funding (or lack thereof) up as an issue while holding out there hands for some more Free Federal Funds™ (yup, using a Bubbaism). The space shuttle isn’t even cool yet.
Hell in a hand basket, I tell you.
