let's see if other posters could offer other nominees for this important mission..... 
  Hey, you must not discriminate you know, besides, being an important mission, all of them should eagerly volunteer.
  I say, send the entire lot of them, Congress that is. Senators and Representatives, we'll keep the president for "fake" figure, so we can say, we still have a government [irrelevant, but no one will notice].
  Just tell them that the polls indicate NASA will put them in their proper place in the history of mankind. [which will yield tremendous number of votes for the next election].
  Castro, Yeltsin, Khadaffi, D. Duke, and Arafat should also be invited.
  p.s. I have other nominees, but I will refrain myself from suggesting them, although I will give you a hint:  Reverend Falwell and their kind.  Allelujah !! |
