Bush Asserts U.S. Rights In Space
Edited on Wed Oct-18-06 12:41 PM by tandot

AP) President Bush has signed an order asserting the United States' right to deny adversaries access to space for hostile purposes.

Mr. Bush also said the United States would oppose the development of treaties or other restrictions that seek to prohibit or limit U.S. access to or use of space.

The provisions were contained in the first revision of U.S. space policy in nearly 10 years. Mr. Bush's order, signed more than a month ago, was not publicly announced, although unclassified details of his decision were posted on the Web site of the Office of Science and Technology Policy.

Looks like someone needs to learn how to use the magic wand tool and have their eyes checked for colorblindness.

Is he supposed to be the star child like in 2001?

Now the little fuck wants to play Master of the Universe? I just wish god (if there is one) would just reach her hand down out of the heavens and smack his ass off the planet.
