Watching pornography on the job using company computers is always a bad and stupid idea, but it is even worse when you are supposed to be protecting America at the time–and on the taxpayer’s dime. 

The Missile Defense Agency is part of the Pentagon that has the important role of defending the U.S. against the incoming ballistic missile threat. But apparently some of the employees and contractors there had another kind of lift-off on their minds. ABC News quips that the rocket men were “watching the wrong bombshells” on federal government computers. 

The executive director has issued a memo ordering Missile Defense Agency staff to stop surfing Internet pornography while on duty according to the Bloomberg news agency.
