Readers! A November fund-raising drive!

It is unfortunately time for another November fund-raising campaign to support my work here at Behind the Black. I really dislike doing these, but 2025 is so far turning out to be a very poor year for donations and subscriptions, the worst since 2020. I very much need your support for this webpage to survive.

And I think I provide real value. Fifteen years ago I said SLS was garbage and should be cancelled. Almost a decade ago I said Orion was a lie and a bad idea. As early as 1998, long before almost anyone else, I predicted in my first book, Genesis: The Story of Apollo 8, that private enterprise and freedom would conquer the solar system, not government. Very early in the COVID panic and continuing throughout I noted that every policy put forth by the government (masks, social distancing, lockdowns, jab mandates) was wrong, misguided, and did more harm than good. In planetary science, while everyone else in the media still thinks Mars has no water, I have been reporting the real results from the orbiters now for more than five years, that Mars is in fact a planet largely covered with ice.

I could continue with numerous other examples. If you want to know what others will discover a decade hence, read what I write here at Behind the Black. And if you read my most recent book, Conscious Choice, you will find out what is going to happen in space in the next century.

This last claim might sound like hubris on my part, but I base it on my overall track record.

So please consider donating or subscribing to Behind the Black, either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. I could really use the support at this time. There are five ways of doing so:

1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.

2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation. Takes about a 10% cut.

3. A Paypal Donation or subscription, which takes about a 15% cut:

4. Donate by check. I get whatever you donate. Make the check payable to Robert Zimmerman and mail it to

You can also support me by buying one of my books, as noted in the boxes interspersed throughout the webpage or shown in the menu above.

Leftwing civility: “I will kill Walker myself.”

I wish this was the only person to say this, but no, it isn’t. The link gives a nice sampling of hate from Democrat/leftwing supporters. Another example here.

“Mille Vanilli meet reality, reality, meet the Mille Vanilli President . . .”

June 5, 2012

Dear Mr. Obama,

I guess you can’t blame this one on the rain . . :) . . . Governor Walker won. Again. He won for the same reason that NY9 went to the Republican. The core reason is that this nation faces a perilous financial time brought about by people of your ilk that think the best way to solve a problem is to print money and use it without regard to reality. We all know that this is nuts. But, the rare few of us stand up and fight it. They stand up everyday, and defend what they believe to be true. Some like Governor Walker and Mr. Romney offer themselves as guardians to “We The People” so we may have a choice as to what path to take on election day. Though, I wonder what the Founding Fathers would think of “recall elections,” I bet they would look on such a practice as a short circuiting of an expression of an almost sacred will of the electorate.

That electorate bares much scrutiny. You see like I’ve said many times before. I’m a regular guy. I’ve got my own thoughts, fears, faults, and feelings. No one tells me what to do or when to do it. Except my wife and my children. This evening I went to the gym, once again, and I lifted a bit too much weight, too many times, and I almost blew it. But right there was a future American, could barley speak english, and he saw I was in trouble and stepped in to help. Me being a bit stupid I said “I’m good.” But the help would have been there, and I’m betting that guy was about as legal as your birth certificate, but even he would know which candidate can make opportunity for all Americans; including those yet to be.

See, America, is not about where we have been. America is about where we are going. Boeing Aircraft makes a he!! of a plane, they have that challenge, plus the challenges that are placed upon them from a government whose sole purpose seems to hamstring them as their chief competitor is stumbling. We have General Motors which makes some of the finest automobiles on the market, but is also hamstrung by a government that wants it to make electric cars. We have industry with empty seats with work on the bench and soldering guns waiting to be fired up. We have houses that need to be put to use, even if we have to give them to veterans to restart that vital engine of economic growth that is housing. We also have the ability to educate our youth to be smarter, braver, and better then any American has ever known, but we teach them with standards suited to keep the teacher employed and not the student challenged.

Well, in Wisconsin, they knew it was time to make difference. Too much has been sacrificed for us to let our children down. I vote we get this nation in ship shape before checkout time. Apparently the voters of Wisconsin agree with me. On November 6, 2012, we will do it as we have done in the past. With authority, conviction, and grace. It’s time to put an end to the “Mille Vanilli” Presidency. Maybe you can get a recording contract, with a teleprompter, or a waitering job at the Ellen Stardust Dinner and hang out with Martin Short.

Respectfully,
