Hmm… we’re not going to offer our opinion on the matter until we hear what Bill Kristol has to say about this. [CNN]
NEED MORE SPECIFICS
I too want to ride the mighty moonworm!
When can we leave?
Breaking News:
Humans still have not colonized the moon.
/end feed.
I voted yes only to escape from the Birthers, PUMAs, and Paultards.
Any chance that 23% is the Republican base?
If so, let’s get started, we just need a really big sling shot.
Moon Base Alpha or just my own place?
This is not a scientific poll.
Hell, it’s not even a reasonable fucking question.
No? NO?
The Moon will rise again!
/Futurama
How many people are Republicans: 23%
How many people are Democrats: 77%
The moon is the only place the GOP is safe from Obama.
Once again, the people rally around Aaron Neville!!

Trick question, because it DOESN’T SPECIFY WHICH MOON.
Leave the moon alone!
I would love to live on a sound stage in Arizona.
forgracie:
As long as I don’t have to wear those ill formed zipped jumpsuits.
Sarah Palin didn’t know how to answer on account of her not being able to consistently see the moon from her house.
With two wars, massive economic debt, health care crisis, North Kores, Iran, uprising of teh gayz- this is exactly what we should be asking the American public
I see a snapshot that says 20,736 people went to CNN for information, found this, and thought it good enough to engage. MORE “JAPANESE TOURISTS BUSTED IN ITALY CARRYING ENTIRE U.S. TREASURY STUFFED BETWEEN MANGA AND ANIME DVDs IN SUITCASE” STORIES, PLZ!
kthx
Moononites are jerks. Especially Err.
Ladies and Gentlemen, the Most Trusted Name in News.
this only confirms my long held suspicion that “American” CNN.com is CNN.com International Edition’s deeply stupid, galactically fucking retarded third cousin

If I’m going to be struck down by a bolt of teary-eyed nostalgia, I’m taking the rest of you with me god dammit.
All youse guys who want to go, we’ll call Moonies.
And please live on the dark side of the moon so we don’t have to see you lunartics.
I’d like to visit Moon Unit Zappa.
I think Mr. Kristol’s views on the moon are summed up in its entirety in the following:

Why not? Since the Moon and Outer Space are American, I trust there won’t be any terrorist prisoners there.
Hey little girl do you want some candy?
__ Yes
__ No
This is not a scientific poll.
dijetlo:
one word.
Trebouchet

Works for poop also!
Stupid polls are what you take
“Living on the moon”
I hope my brain don’t break
“Living on the moon”
Cable news forever
“Living on the moon”
Jump the shark together
“Living on”, “Living on the moon”
No, no Bill. The moon is full, Uranus is gassy.
Do I get to wear astronaut diapers?
“Would you eat the moon if it were made of ribs?”
magic titty: Yes, the ghost of Harry Carey has hijacked the CNN Poll … from space!
Next question: What’s your favorite planet? (Mine’s the sun.)
In defense of CNN, it’s much better than Fox’s poll:
Would you like Barack Obama to live on the moon:
-Yes
-No
-Yes, but only if he takes ACORN with him
-How do we know he wasn’t already born on the moon since we haven’t seen his birth certificate?
nbawriter: The sun is not a planet.
Mine’s Pluto. Wha? DOH!!
SayItWithWookies: spittake
Next poll:
Would you…
(a) Like to swing on a star.
(b) Carry moonbeams home in a jar.
(c) Be better off than you are.
(d) Undecided.
Monsieur Grumpe: I bow to your engineering expertise and note that since it already hurls chicken shit, it meets spec. How soon can we get that delivered?
magic titty: I know I would.
Crab1: “Three demensions. How quaint. We have five….THOUSAND.”
Jack Cafferty better ask this question during the Situation Room or else I’m going to start turning to Fox.
Gil Scott-Heron says only white people live on the moon. Why is CNN racist?
SayItWithWookies: +1
I’d go up there just to dangle the world’s first “MoonNutz” That’s badass right thur!
Hahaha (first trucknutz comment of the thread)!
77% of us like to look down at the earth from above
We would miss all the places and people we love.
So although we might like it for one afternoon
We would not want to live on the moon.
I hear it is lovely in the spring.
I always want to moon the Earth. Always.
You mean I’m not on the moon right now? Ah, fuck!
How’s AT&T’s 3G coverage? Excellent?
This is a hoax to get us up there in time for the next ASTEROID BARRAGE.
Step 1: Get confirmation if these are the same 23% that still love W, think Barry is an illegal immigrant muslin teleprompter, and can’t find the USA on a map.
Step 2: Call NASA.
Enough with the jokes–I’m glad to see CNN devoting its time and energy to important matters like this.
Lou Dobbs will probably have an existential breakdown over this one.
BlueStateLibtard: I hope they definitely show what people are saying about the poll on either Twitter or the CNN message boards. Those comments are always highly illuminating and add much to the issues at hand.
NoWireHangers: Step 3: Profit!
ManchuCandidate: But those lamps ruled! At least in season one…
We’re whalers on the moon,
We carry a harpoon.
But there ain’t no whales
So we tell tall tales
And sing our whaling tune.
Are there dark skin people on the moon that we can bomb? Otherwise, I don’t wee why Bill Kristol would care.
Ignignokt: We are Mooninites from the inner core of the moon.
Err: You said it right.
Ignignokt: Our race is hundreds of years beyond yours.
Err: Man, you hear what he’s saying?
Ignignokt: Some would say that the Earth is our moon.
Err: We’re the moon.
Ignignokt: But that would belittle the name of our moon, which is: The Moon.
Err: Point is: we’re at the center, not you.
No one can defeat the quad laser.
NoWireHangers:
Fuck Nasa, they’ll want to build habitats, make sure the colony is self sustaining. They’ll take ten years to study the problem, spend a billion dollars and then ask us if we want to see a picture of Crab Nebula. I’ve been waiting thirty years for my flying car and jet pack, I’m not willing to wait that long for this.
Besides, these are Republicans, real Americans, pull yourself up by your own bootstraps folks, they’ll be fine. Just tell them the trebouchet is cost effective, you know how they feel about the government wasting tax dollars. Just fling a bunch of pillows up their first and tell them their are no brown people on the moon so they wont have to apologize for slavery, they’ll knock the thing over trying to get on it.
Next week on CNN.com…It’s a simple question: Do you want to go to Mars with a dead guy and a sandwich? Yes or no?
forgracie: May I just say that your geek credentials are impeccable?
Thank you all. This is why I read Wonkette - to laugh until I start getting dizzy.
Monsieur Grumpe:
I don’t know if you think he’s joking (in which case you’re a cop), or you’re laughing (in which case you’re a criminal), but there’s one thing you CANNOT laugh at: “Watson-Webb is also the proud owner of a 20-foot-long cannon, out of which he used to fire his wife!” No joke, criminal.
If people only knew how hot moonsecks was, it would have produced the opposite result.
Regarding Repblicans on the moon, I am very curious to know how they would pay for their social services there if it is tax-free. No doubt it would be a massive earth subsidy
