Jon Stewart watched in awe last night as the gang at Fox News slammed President Barack Obama for what Stewart called their fear of “Muslims in space.”
As TPM previously reported, conservatives have been fear-mongering about a new initiative in the space program to promote outreach to Muslim nations.
“What kind of presidential asshole would use the space program to build a bridge to peace?” Stewart asked, before showing a clip of President Ronald Reagan talking about using the space program to work with the Soviet Union.
“Liberal fartbag,” said Stewart. “That guy had a pre-Cold War mentality when it came to NASA.”
