NASA sent a rocket to the moon and crashed it to see if there was any water, and then took pictures of the event. What, are we running out of Poland Spring water on earth? Is NASA so bored that we have to blow $79 million on such nonsense? If we find H20 there who gives a crap?

NASA clearly has lost its way. I know they have to find something for all these engineers to do. With an $18 billion budget, perhaps we can find something more visionary for them to do. I have an idea. Why don't we send up an energy exploration team to the moon? We can send a few more $79 million rockets to various craters on the moon and hope to find some oil or gas. Since we don't want to drill for more energy in the U.S. anymore perhaps there is some on the moon.

Think about it. If we discover oil on the moon we will save or create tens of thousands of jobs. We can send bureaucrats from the EPA and the Department of Lunar Energy on fact-finding missions and members of Congress can take expensive junkets there and throw some lunar parties. And then we can drill for oil and make the unions happy by offering a lunar pay premium for working under weightless conditions.

A barrel of lunar oil would probably fetch around $100,000 per barrel, when you consider the costs of drilling and transportation. However, the liberals would all line up for a chance to fill their tanks up with clean lunar energy. Lunar oil, coming soon to a gas station near San Francisco, for $5,000 per gallon.

Thanks NASA...give Trans Ocean a call. They are forming a subsidiary called Lunar Drilling to take advantage of the lunar stimulus money. This money will be ear-marked in the second stimulus package being put together by Pandemic Pelosi and her crew of big spenders.

          

Let's Drill for Oil on the Moon Since We Won't Drill for It Here!
