Scientists agree that Newt Gingrich’s plan to colonize the moon wouldn’t work because of gravitational issues and the lack of a magnetic field to shield against the harmful effects of cosmic rays.
But today, the GOP candidate’s plan was endorsed by an unlikely source — former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
The dimwitted Alaskan explained, “Talk of cosmic rays and gravity are just two examples of ‘science propaganda’ created by the liberal media.”
Newt agreed with Palin, taking her assessment a step further.
“I have a hard time imagining an invisible force pulling me down to the earth’s surface,” he said. “It’s safe to say that my obesity, not gravity, is what’s keeping me from floating around.”
