The vice president visited the space center to discuss President Donald Trump’s plans for space exploration, which he said would include a return to the moon and “American boots on the face of Mars.”
Back to the Moon? For what purpose? And “American boots on the face of Mars" sounds strangely like some kind of military expedition. It would have made SO MUCH more sense for Pence to make references to NASA’s working with Space X, creating a hybrid public/private partnership in the future of space exploration.
But that would have been way too complicated for him to grok.
We have to get there before ISIS. It’s all part of Trump’s secret plan.
He should tour an infectious disease lab next.
Nah. He doesn’t want to send people, just Uggs.
During the Vice President’s visit to the NASA Kennedy Space Center Thursday, where he advocated for getting “American boots” on Mars, Vice President Mike Pence was photographed touching space equipment clearly labeled “Do Not Touch.”

“I must have seen this hundreds of times in the Smithsonian, but I was never allowed to touch it.”

He was more handsome as a fish.
Only if there is a full Cabinet meeting afterward.
What is it with Republicans and signs? First the the braindead congressman at Auschwitz and now this dunce. Could they actually be illiterate? It would explain a lot.
All the world is a giant Skinner Box to Mike Pence and all he sees is levers…levers everywhere…
MARS CLIMATE ORBITER TEAM FINDS LIKELY CAUSE OF LOSS
Give him a break. He didn’t touch the sign.
I have to say though…if you’re not supposed to touch it, might the whole tape-glue-paper thing be a bad idea too?
Ira’s Dad once again wins best comment of the day!
Can we excuse Mattis from that meeting? Not because I’m giving him any special pass on the Administration, but because the Cabinet getting wiped out sounds like a great opportunity for someone out there in the unfriendly world to take advantage of it.
If I have to trust one of them to be alive and healthy in the case of potential international hostilities, I’d at least like it to be the guy we can probably trust to have a clue just how bad shit he has to deal with actually is.
Doesn’t he know that face on Mars was just a hoax?
This would never have happened if Mrs. Pence had been in the room.
Well shit, I thought the Asshole-elect was the dumber of the duo. Looks like Pence is right up there with a box of rocks.
I guess this hurts my prayers for the Asshole-elect to come down with terminal testicular cancer, and then be succeeded by Pence, a supposedly smarter person. Sad.
They’ll label it “fake news” and ignore it.
