but all of them were worthwhile goals, not simply a partisan money sink to reward your RAT friends while destroying the 1/6 of the nations economy in the process...

The four things mentioned are successful events that enhanced the greatness of America.

obamacare should not be compared to or even mentioned in the same breath as those accomplishments. obamacare is incompetence at the highest level of our government and is designed to weaken our great nation.

Totally disgusting.

But hey, those guys only had to deal with hostile nations... They didn't have to master javascript, work with flaky JVMs, or cranky database servers... ;-) Besides, according to Tom Cruise we now know that fighting wars is no more difficult than acting.

It should go without saying, but for the slow lib lurkers out there yes, that was sarcasm.

John F. Kennedy, Sept. 12, 1962:
But why, some say, the Moon? Why choose this as our goal? And they may well ask, why climb the highest mountain? Why, 35 years ago, fly the Atlantic? …

We choose to go to the Moon. We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills; because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one we intend to win ...

President Obamao, sometime in 2008

But why, some say, build a web site? Why choose this as our goal? And they may well ask, why climb the highest mountain? Why, 35 years ago, Al Gore invented the internet? …

We choose to build a web site. We choose to build a web site in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills; because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one we intend to win …

The Manhatten Project is the most impressive of these as we basically had to build everything from scratch.

The bammycare website already had everything it needed. Imagine if they had had to develop the web and all that it entails. This thing would never get off the ground.
