One of the talking points coming out of the Obama administration is
that the one thing wrong about the new space policy that cancelled the
Constellation space exploration program was that it wasn't sold
properly.

Lori Garver, NASA's Deputy Administrator and one of the architects of
the plan,
expressed that sentiment at a recent meeting of the American Institute
of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

The following is part fiction written for the purpose of conveying
ideas in the form of a dialogue, but I think encapsulates the problem
with space policy and selling a government space program in our time.
