Is America at a state in its evolution where this (space exploration) is the next right thing to focus on? Is everything else taken care of? Nothing more to improve? It strikes me how Bush has had no real agenda, no purpose, no call. I guess he just wanted to be president (with help/push from his father) - just because it is good to be the king (Mel Brooks). Some of the former presidents had ideolological reasons to want to become president. To fix America. Turning the giant into a gentle one with a sharing society to be proud of and envied by others instead of the violent hotdog it has become. For me it has come down to muting, turning off or switching channel on the TV whenever Bush comes on.
