Wait! There's going to be a new sheriff in town.

I'm not holding my breath. It's been a long time since we as a nation have had cajones. For instance: Could you imagine that there would have been any debate over saving the Hubble when President Kennedy was in office?

Maybe we should ask the Chinese for some help.

It has nothing to do with ability to do it.

We have X amount of $$$ and it just isn't worth the time, money and yes, potential risk. Look how it takes 2+ years to return to flight after we lose a shuttle.

Fear of failure should be more correctly called LIBERALS' love of trying to carve money off NASA's budget and micromanage the agency.

Tell it to our boys in Baghdad.

What you're really bitching about is priorities. The basic fact is that Congress has different priorities than you do. It's not a matter of testosterone, except maybe for you.
