You know, sometimes you just know when someone opens their mouth that minutes later they are going to have to extract both feet; this observation applies directly to Obama. The only contributions to science and flight to which the Muslim community has contributed is the the throwing of rocks and boiling of water and I'm pretty sure someone gave them a few tips on the latter. The Muslim community has a few hurdles to jump before NASA appears on the horizon.
