I'm going to guess this asshat voted to eviscerate NASA's budget in the first place. As to creating 600-900 new jobs, they will most likely be filled by people from other states. So I don't see how that's a huge help to Louisianna anyway.

Easy way is to post your comment, then immediately edit it. The text between the ❯ and the ❮/a❯ is what becomes the link text. Replace it with whatever you like, save, and you're done.

You have to get it done before someone replies, so avoid making clever comments.

God made the universe with those photons <i> already on their way</i> to earth. (Actual Xtard explanation.)

He also red-shifted the light, just for the lulz. And threw in gravitational lensing as well ... the guy's a real perfectionist, doncha know.

The whole universe-as-elaborate-practical-joke schtick leads you to wonder if the fundies believe the galaxies are actually out there, seeing as they aren't needed in the scheme.
