Representative Michele Bachmann (R-MN) today urged NASA to scrub its mission to bomb the Moon tomorrow citing national security concerns.
Sounding out words from a prepared statement, the admitted Glenn Beck/Rush Limbaugh disciple told reporters that she is deeply concerned about possible repercussions from “… an unprovoked assault by the United States upon our lunar neighbor.”
“It’s yet another example of science leading us down the road to ruin,” Bachmann continued, “My fear is that it will instill a deep-seeded hatred of the United States within the alien community. I don’t think I need to remind anyone that millions of aliens currently permeate all areas of our society – from restaurant kitchens all the way up to the White House, and many of them are not only undocumented, but may also already be in possession of beauty-related bomb components.”
Rep. Bachmann also revealed that she has contacted Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, urging her to raise the national ‘Terror Alert Level’ to “boom”. She also warned that high-ranking NASA officials “will certainly face a Congressional inquiry and possibly even criminal charges if this bombing results in unacceptable collateral damage or loss of civilian lives in the adjacent lunar areas.”
When asked if she feared that her home state’s Mall of America might be the potential target of a retaliatory alien terrorist attack, Bachmann said, “Of course that’s always a concern, but I’m much more worried about places that get crowded.”
