The US space agency NASA lost its way in the 1970s when it focused on the space shuttle and International Space Station, NASA chief Michael Griffin reportedly said.

"It is now commonly accepted that was not the right path," Griffin said. "We are now trying to change the path while doing as little damage as we can."

NASA chief Michael Griffin is a loser and should be replaced because American were sold this kind of space station via Hollywood.

But NASA build this thing.

Hollywood does effect the federal budget
with fantasy to the tax payers, then Congress
delivers the cold reality.

NASA chief Michael Griffin is a loser and should be replaced because American [sic] were sold this kind of space station via Hollywood.

So, he should be fired because of what previous administrations have done?

Americans weren't sold anything - the general public has no more authority to approve/kill NASA projects than they do to correct the tax system.
