Newt Gingrich pledging Permanent Moon Bases By End of Second Term

Newt needs Starships to attack Klingons before they develop nuclear weapons and destroy Israel. The United Nations Atomic Energy Commission has not been able to inspect the Klingon home world of Kronos, and experts say that they are just 6 months away from developing weapons of mass destruction. Bill Kristol, speaking on behalf of the Emergency Committee for Israel, warned that the Klingon people converted to Islam many centuries ago, and plan a galaxy wide jihad to spread Sharia Law. Newt is the only candidate that can save us from this grave, existential threat.

Newt is scared because Callista told him, "Newt, there are Klingons on Uranus."
 
He's nuts.

PS: For anyone that doesn't know anything about this. It takes a couple of years to prepare such things, oooh and a couple trillions but I guess 'Ole Newt would ask Mr Fed Chairman for some lubrication of the printing press.

To be fair Apollo tranlated into 2010 dollars would be about 150 billion. So a permanent base would probably be in the order of 300 billion dollars.
 
This is stupid. I actually spent the last 30 minutes of my life doing some quick research on whether this is possible or not and it is but the massive costs and negatives that would be experienced by anyone living there are too great.
 
Now we know where he's going to put the FEMA camp--and all of us.

He's going to be making moonbats out of us, folks.
 
If he were President I'd be the first one in line to get the heck off this planet!
 
Sex on the moon? I'm sorry, but this is the ticket. Sorry Ron. You're consistent, incorruptible, prophetic, principled, and 99% right, but Newt can give me sex on the moon.

NEWT 2012!!!
 
Newt Gingrich | Sex in Space
The former House speaker has long been known for his boyish enthusiasm for subjects like dinosaurs, zoos and outer space. And in his 1996 book “To Renew America” he even devoted a short chapter to proposals that are, in some cases, directly inspired by popular science fiction. “Why not aspire to build a real Jurassic Park?” Gingrich asked on page 190 of the book, adding in parenthesis that such an achievement “may not be at all impossible.”

We could also have sex in space.

“I believe that space tourism will be a common fact of life during the adulthood of children born this year, that honeymoons in space will be the vogue by 2020,” Gingrich wrote toward the end of the chapter. “Imagine weightlessness and its effects and you will understand some of the attractions.”

 
Newt Gingrich is a very Very Dangerous person.

SO, how do we label/stigma this lunatic? There needs a campaign against Hitler II.

Helium-3 ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helium-3#Extraterrestrial_supplies ) is the only reason that would justify a moon colony. The problem is, however, that the Helium-3 would have to be transported back to earth in order to be used as a source for fusion energy. That's way too costly to make any sense.
Yeah, but think of all the balloons! :)

The best way to make progress in space exploration and colonization is to reduce the cost of getting into geostationary orbit, i.e. cheaper and more effective means of transportation.
I'm financially supporting some German and Swiss scientists who do research on space elevators, a very promising concept:

I dont see how that could possibly end up badly. Interesting idea but way too many variables at first glance to be safe yet effective. Btw, every presidential candidate promises the moon (literally) in some form and so far iirc JFK is the only one to have it happen on his watch.

It only worked for JFK because it was posthumous.
