Bush's space plan

George, sometimes you make perfect sense, in this case your case is
ludicrous.

If I knew the political agenda was so biased one way and the actual facts
were ignored to prove someone's political stance, I would never of joined
this group to begin with.

It's truly ashame that some of you who think that you know what your talking
about actually poison this list with inaccuracies and downright hate.

I'm gone from this group.

It's not worth anyone's time who actually has a passion for space
exploration.

Bush is a born-again idiot and I'm not voting for him even if he
gets Congress behind his space plan, a plan which, as far as I
understand it so far, I like.

If he doesn't get elected, will the plan still be carried out?
Congress has to make it so and this thing has to go on after Bush
leaves the White House whenever and I don't know if that's realistic
to expect although it happened with Kennedy's man-on-the-moon-in-'69
program.

If it goes through, NASA's budget is increased 5% which isn't much
of an increase but it's something but will it be enough to pay for
it all? Mars, I imagine, will be especially expensive.
