Let Obama stop using space spin-offs
Dear Mr. Obama,
Since you’ve seen fit to kill our space program and have ruined several thousand lives in Florida, Texas, Alabama and places where the space program was prevalent, I want to make a request.
Since I believe you have never been for the program and don’t think you know much of what the program was about, would you and your family please stop using the silly spin-offs the space program was responsible for.
Turn in your digital radios and computers. Throw away your microwave oven and anything that has Teflon on it. Stop driving any automobile past the year 1958, and please don’t dare board Air Force One or the Marine One helicopter, because they are full of silly gadgets courtesy of the space program. Don’t dare watch television or try to make speeches using modern amplification gadgets.
And if you have family members who have had surgery, which included modern technology, please ask them not to do that anymore. If they have a pacemaker, tell them to have it removed.
I’m sure space workers you duped into voting for you are anxiously awaiting another visit so they can hear more of your lies.
