 | Of all the "missteps" that the President has taken, we find the discontinuation of the manned space program to be the most revealing of his methods and motives. WASHINGTON - U.S. Senator George LeMieux (R-FL) today issued the following statement in response to comments by former astronaut and U.S. Senator John Glenn in support of additional Space Shuttle flights. |
"I fully support Senator John Glenn's call for additional Shuttle flights. Relying solely on the Russians for access to space is irresponsible. President Obama's ill-conceived plans for NASA will cost Florida thousands of jobs while dismantling a critical workforce and national capability. I look forward to working with Senator Glenn and other leaders in space exploration to correct the Obama Administration's misguided plans to outsource human space exploration to the Russians." ###
