Gay in Space - No It's Not a Sci-Fi Movie, It's NASA!!!

The Acting Administrator of NASA and the Equal Opportunity Programs Office has encouraged agency employees to take part in “LGBT Pride Month,” (per Obama's proclamation) leading to criticism that the action takes the space agency “completely off-mission” and promotes homosexual activism.

An announcement posted at the NASA website says "During Gay and Lesbian Pride Month, we focus on our efforts to embrace acceptance and welcome diversity in communities regardless of sexual orientation. Gay and lesbian groups celebrate this special time with pride parades, picnics, parties, memorials for those lost from HIV and AIDS, and other group gathering events that attract thousands upon thousands of individuals.”

The announcement then described “symbols of LGBT pride” and referred employees to internal sites for more information.

It continued: “Take time to learn about the contributions of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Americans, and celebrate the diversity that has helped shape and strengthen NASA and our nation.”
Elton John sang Rocket Man. Was this what he had in mind?
