I am waiting for the Ruskies to shut down our space program over this since we don't have a current or planned launch system which does not depend on the Russians (i.e. rocket motors).

??? WTF ???

Great decision by Obama to end the Shuttle program without having a rocket system to replace it.

It’s true. We contract with the Russians to send supplies to the ISS.

That’s what happens when Obama is more concerned abou muslim outreach than keeping up with a way to reach the ISS.
