Refuse to believe this is not an Onion headline.


An offshoot of the South Florida Tea Party called "Tea Party In Space" is looking to break apart the government's socialist takeover of the final frontier.

Well, there ya go. Finally a productive proposal for having their heads up their asses. I can hardly wait to read the reports. What's that? That's not what they're talking about? Outer space? That final frontier? Hmmmm. Right.

On another note, Jack Nicholson's character in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest channeled his fellow patients into more productive activities like going on boat rides and after hours parties. The Teaonauts need new leadership that can help direct their creativity to productive yet more likely outcomes. I'm thinking crafts. Macaroni art comes to mind. Wearing their space jammies to keep the dream alive.

Done, of course, in small angry self-funded groups so as to avoid the appearance of socialistic tendencies.

Where can I contribute?

Tea Party, Florida, Space -- a perfect candidate for a Darwin Lifetime Achievement Award.

But make sure they're at a safe distance. Rocket fuel makes for pretty big explosions.

Ah, I see. NASA has been hindering the ability of obscenely rich people to pay for trips into space by underwriting and funding a program called Commercial Crew Development.

How odd that the TPIS claims that NASA is "socialist," but their favorite program, CCDEV, the one they are promoting as a free-market capitalist activity, has been funded by the government to the tune of $320 million, and they want the government, through NASA, to spend more on it.

These people have a serious thinking disorder.
