I rather thought that this is exactly the attitude he was parodying - calls to defund seemingly frivolous research, things that have no immediately obvious applicability to the general public such as the space program, etc.

Like when Sarah Palin decried fruit fly research in a portion of a speech where she was talking about the need to fund autism research.
