Newt Gingrich pledges moon base by second term & other fun political stuff

[thistlechaser]

Newt pledges moon base by second term. One of my favorite comments on that story is "And we will pay for this venture with TAX CUTS!".

Also: Fidel Castro called the GOP presidential nomination race "the greatest competition of idiocy and ignorance that has ever been." That tickles me quite a bit.

And if you want some non-political amusement, have a cat texting prank.

I was laughing so hard at that cat-texting prank. Especially imagining that guy typing that cancel command, lmfao.

I'm sure in response to Castro's comments, some brain-trust would say that if the communists think we're doing it wrong, we must be doing it right.

As for Newt's moon base, well of course that''s easy for him to say. His head is already far up in outer space.

Yeah, the cat one made me laugh for that same reason. Typing all that out, ha!

Yeah, I was kind of worried some folks might take it that way.

...Moon base. I am reminded of goodspaceguy (http://vote.wa.gov/Elections/VotersGuide/Statement.aspx?c=9ba97701-3a27-4582-a3fc-42f1d7315287).
