To the moon, Alice, to the moon!
Jackie Gleason (1916 -- ’87) as Ralph Kramden to his wife Alice
Enough with the woman astronaut! It’s certainly not that big of news. She is the first woman astronaut to have an affair go awry, but not the first woman or man, so who cares? Apparently, all the national media from Brian Williams to NPR and every medium in between thinks it's big news.
Were astronauts considered morally incorruptible? This story should have been buried on the inside pages or better yet left as fodder for People and US. The real front-page story is that President Bush did not learn a thing from the New Orleans dam breaking, because he is trying to reduce funding to repair the levees in northern California that are susceptible to earthquakes as well as flooding.

Misnathrope, it's nice to know that some things never change -- there's no story out there you can't somehow turn into a commentary about Bush.
You tell me what is the more important story? An astronaut's twisted love affair or the millions of dollars Bush wants to cut to repair the levees? Here comes another dig at the Decider, maybe he can raise the money from the national forest lands he is trying to sell.
