Could be, but this sounds just like him: The President realizes this will be an unpopular call, but stands behind the decision, saying, “This is an obvious cut to make, but it is not an easy one. This administration is not ignoring the tremendous sentimental value and emotional appeal NASCAR holds for so many Americans. But now is not the time for sentiment and nostalgia; now is a time for decisive financial action. If our automotive industry is to emerge from this recession intact, then these difficult decisions must be made.”
Wow I appreciate the answer. Having grownup watching Jules Bergman describe every Mercury thru Apollo launch televised, I’ve had a fondness for the space program.In the mid 60’s Nasa had a science show that came to my high school in Ashland, Ky, with a full sized Lunar Lander and other great displays. Heck, I tear up watching the Right Stuff.
I wish they could connect with the public like that and build more enthusiam and support. The benefits outweigh the costs.
