The Moon is not enough! Ad Astra Per Aspera!

Amen, Brother Buzz!

Every since "President" Bush announced his new "space initiative" I've been worried that it'll have the effect of killing the space program instead of revitalizing it.

And the press isn't helping, by (as I mentioned previously) getting their facts wrong

But Bushie's program seems to be to me just more election year posturing. Bushie's daddy has a Space Exploration Initiative too. That went nowhere. Bushie's program is worse. Poorly articulated, underfunded, and poorly executed. It's boomeranging on him. While I'm glad that Bushie's looking bad instead of good....I'm sad that it's slopping over onto the space program.

At least the two Mars Rovers are bringing in fascinating news and pics. Maybe that'll cause the public to forget that they ever read anything about Bushie's New Improved Space Program...

We've gotta revitalize the space program.....right now the human race has all it's eggs in one basket. We've got to go to the stars. Too bad it looks like it's gonna take forever to get moving.
