(844 posts)If he does set up some dear leader style parade then we should set up a much bigger series of marches the same day to steal his airtime. Same as his shitty inauguration. He would hate that so much.

(33,468 posts)Right after seeing your post, I watched a Nova episode ("Invisible Universe Revealed" on a local PBS broadcast. It's about Hubble and, of course, had Nancy Roman in it. We wouldn't have Hubble without her.
Roman: One thing I ought to tell you. I think Ive mentioned this in other interviews, but I still find it interesting. In the early days when we were still trying to get approval through Congress, [William] Proxmireyou might probably remember himasked why the average American taxpayer should want to pay for the Hubble. It was then the ST, Space Telescope. My answer wasand this was all by mail; I didnt ever testify in Congress, fortunately, I thinkmy answer was that for the price of a night at the movies every taxpayer would receive fifteen years of exciting scientific results.
In the first place, I dont think my prediction was wrong. In the second place, I recently figured whether that statement was still true, and it is. In spite of the increase in cost of the Hubbleother things have also gone upits still true that the average American taxpayer is getting fifteen years of exciting science for the price of a single night at the movies.

Note the date on that interview. Some of the most astounding discoveries made possible by Hubble have happened since then.
Get back in that kitchen!

(1,202 posts)Remember the crowds at the inauguration?
Remember how many more millions voted for Hillary? Remember the lie of the most watched SOTU?
It's been excuse after excuse for why the numbers don't pan out for Trump. These other real live persons are pissed, and they will vote.
They only way to get the numbers to actually show up is via a CoC demand...gawd he's so hated and his need for public adoration so great

(10,216 posts)Hell all those returning Vietnam Vets never got a parade and this guy, with fake feet problems, who got out of serving his country is going to throw himself a parade with our military with our tax dollars.
This is just the most disgusting thing I've heard him do. Will there be giant pictures of our weird leader being carried by goose stepping Nazis too?
Cowardly piece of crap trying to make himself look all military when he ducked out when his turn came to defend his country. All the while he's turning over state secrets to our enemies.

Throw in a few balloons from the Macy's parades & he'll be happy.
