I have a couple huge problems with his plans. First, acording to CNN, he wants to go to go to the moon by 2018. If it is so importiant that we go there... why not go next year? This just seems like a nice way to get some press before the next election. I mean, he would be out of office before this moon plan ever came off.
My other problem is, if I remember correctly, he was going to cut funding on the International Space station. Now he wants to go to the moon, can't this guy EVER play nice with other countries?

I would actually like it if we had a cool space program again, but I don't think Bush really gives a fuck, I think he just wants news airtime that isn't about the war in Iraq.
