Default Bush's speech: a load of wishful thinking

What gives me a bad feeling about the whole plan is NASA's abysmal
track record in this regard: if there's one thing they've proved
themselves utterly unable to do, it's to develop a shuttle
replacement. Deciding to retire the shuttle fleet without a viable
replacement seems a very risky decision.
