I just read Bush's statement made at the NASA press conference about the much anticipated "return to the moon" program.
I have to say that I agree with the sentiments expressed in this statement, even getting somewhat emotional while reading it.
But what struck me was the clumsy way he phrased things. How many people will remember any of the phrases from this speech, 20 years from now?
In contrast, phrases from Kennedy's speech, like "we do these things not because they are easy, but because they are hard" just leap right out at you decades later.
Anyway, I'm happy about this announcemnet.
Now, where do I sign up to become a feeder at the subcontracting trough :-)
