spacedotcom goes lunatic

Let's hope not, a space race right now is the best thing that can happen to
the US, if not to the entire world IMHO!

Indeed. I came across it looking for the latest moon race bubble, and I just
found amusing to see that it has been going on already for years... sorry, I
should have been more clear... :)
Given that "White House spokesman Scott McClellan told reporters Thursday
that President Bush has no plans to make any policy announcement about the
U.S. space program in the near future" I guess the latest "rumours" are just
nothing more than that: rumours...
Let's hope not, a space race right now is the best thing that can happen to
