what you don't realize here, jay, is that bush doomed his visionary
project from the start, exactly the same way he doomed "no child left
behind".

nasa has approximately an $11bn budget currently, and he promised that
he would ask congress for another $1bn, spread out over the next five
years, to fund this initiative. that's $200m a year. WHOOPITYDOO.

your man is playing you, and you don't even see it.

On the contrary, many of the posts opposing the President's space initiative
have been filled with political invective, and an almost palpable loathing
of Mr. Bush.

I'd say this is a sign that nothing has changed, and real *discussion* is
illusory.
