As the Bush administration continues to falter in its misguided Iraq adventure, it has decided to distract us by being the first to militarize space with lasers and possibly weapons of mass destruction.

Wonderful. We’re just going to add to troubles on the ground and the high seas by opening up another can of worms. I’m not against planning in case other countries decide to go to space, but sometimes, defensive measures are often more effective and cheaper.

In fact, if we want to put stuff in space, I’d rather have the Sweden take the lead.
