I was just picturing my conversations with the kool aide drinkers. . .
Nixon did scrap the program after Apollo 17...he came in in January and let it coast through the July launch, which was already scheduled when he came into office....he used up the stuff that was already built.
He did NOTHING for the space program...
he wasnt even a conservative...he was a statist, and elitist and a crony capitalist who implimented wage and price freezes.
