"Astronaut Fired After Charge of Attempted Kidnapping" (3/8/07 p. A17)

Maybe it’s considered something not so funny, but every time I read an article about Lisa Nowak, I find myself with a smirk on my face over how ridiculous this woman is.

Lisa Nowak was the astronaut that strapped on and a diaper to travel 900 miles to kidnap a woman interfering with Nowak and her lover. The whole picture of a diaper and a pissed off astronaut just makes me laugh.

The article in the New York Times on March 8 informed readers that Nowak was fired from NASA. Well, obviously, the woman apparently needs help. However, reading into the article I was shocked to find that Nowak will be returning to the military. Is it reasonable or ethical that one of the defenders for our country is the same woman that wears a diaper so she doesn't have to make a stop on her quest to kidnap and hurt? I don't think so.

When searched by police, Nowak's vehicle contained a BB gun, a new steel mallet, a knife and rubber tubing. Yet, the military is willing to take this deranged woman back despite everything that has just happened. People with felonies for less crimes cannot get a job as a secretary, let alone an alleged kidnapper getting into the military.

Ms. Nowak will be assigned to the staff at the Chief of Navel Air Training in Corpus Christi, Texas. As if our country isn't in enough trouble enough, we now have another lunatic working for us.
