Intergalactical Motivation.

Hey, turns out our own Lamar Smith was a co-sponsor of Cut, Cap & Balance Imaginarium.

Also, Lamar's website has a news release entitled "America Deserves a Better Space Program," where he bashes Obama for shutting down manned space flights. Apparently, even a government that shamefully borrows 43 cents of every dollar spent* should find billions to send Astronauts to the moon. The quote below is from Lamar's press release. Seriously, we did not write this. It's all Lamar:

In national polling, NASA enjoys a hugely positive approval rating, in the range of 65-75 percent — an amazing result for any government agency. However, when you ask people why, they are not really sure, but they have an innate sense that what NASA does is part of what makes our country great. At a fundamental level, NASA is in the inspiration business — a motivating example for young people to try what has never been done before. If we can go to the Moon, we can do almost anything.
