Separated at Birth
One Small Step for Man, One Giant Step for Nut Jobs
Bernard Goldberg 2-4-13


Every now and then someone comes up with a really, really good idea.  It doesn’t happen often, but when it does, it’s worth taking note.
Here’s the best one I’ve heard in a long time.  Iran’s president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, wants to be shot into space.  He wants to be the country’s first astronut … oops … astsronaut.
“I am ready to be the first human to be sent to space by Iranian scientists,” he said, according to a report by Reuters.
About a week ago, Iran sent a monkey into space.  In 2010, it sent a mouse, a turtle and worms into space.  There’s a cheap joke here somewhere but taking a stab at it is beneath me.
If this isn’t simply more crazy talk from Iran’s crazy president he not only would be his country’s first human in space, he would also be it’s first chucklehead in space.
