Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

My cat doesn't walk through walls, but it does pee on the dirty laundry sometimes.

And don't forget proving global warming, or climate change, or whatever the latest for the children and don't ask question environmental scare that requires sciency looking papers.
I also seem to remember something about "improving relationships with the muslim parts of the world". ;/

Ha! I'm currently reading that book. =)
"so I ended up getting the above because I didn't want to make a whole production of sticking something between my knees and cranking. To me, the cranking on mine is pretty effortless, at least on the coarse setting. Maybe if someone has arthritis or something, it would be more difficult for them." - Ben

That's the real beauty of a space program. When you have the high-ground, and the ability to go most places at will, it's also the ability to destroy most anything on a planet you wish by dropping a rock on it.

No pesky plutonium needed.

I think there is an element of salting the earth.
