Get real. Musk has put 1,000 lbs in orbit. And this was after months of delays. We have had other private companies put stuff in space years ago. This is all Administration propaganda aided and abetted by the MSM. 60 Minutes did a puff piece on Musk a few weeks ago. Here is how this is being reported:

Success or failure of the new commercial space effort -- the cornerstone of President Barack Obama's vision for NASA -- does not hinge on a single mission but rather many missions over many years, Pettit stressed.

False. NASA has never, until Space-X, set specs and let the company design whatever they wanted to meet those specs. NASA has screwed the pooch for 30 years, and are finally getting it together.

Rather than be angry and bitter that times have changed, perhaps you should rejoice that America is moving forward again on space.

As I said earlier. NASA wasted billions on ARES that will never fly, and Space-X will put Americans back into space again in a couple of years. It's hard to argue with success.
