So who exactly do you think will be brave enough to take responsibility
for keeping the shuttle flying past 2010?
Currently we have a fixed date to stop flights,

The "fixed" date is in fact completely arbitrary, so stretching it will not
require much bravery.


It would require the courage, or maybe the cowardice, to contradict a
direct and explicit promise from the President of the United States to
the American people.


No you just need to feed another "promise" to some other (or possibly
even the same) president sometime before the date.
