Default Is Lori Garver Flip-Flopping, too?

Given Lori Garver's statement (kerryspace.com) in July:

"the Bush initiative is simply hot-air..."

it is somewhat surprising to see also what she wrote in February:

Lori Garver:

"In my view, what the President announced on January 14 is really a
re-focusing of NASA. In some ways it isn't very new. I have worked in this
community for twenty years and we have all known we were going back to the
moon and Mars; it has always just been a question of when and how to provide
leadership and a framework to do it. I believe that is what the President
laid out and we should all be very grateful, as I am. When I was at the
Policy Office at NASA, I would have been absolutely thrilled to have such a
presidential announcement and an initiative which was thought through to the
extent that I believe these folks did in advance of the announcement. There
has been a lot said about the initiative being formulated behind closed
doors which I would associate with Dr. Logsden's remarks in his editorial in
Space News a few weeks ago. In many ways, this was the only way something
like this could be done. All of us would have loved to be part of it and
would have refocused NASA in our own specific way, but in my view we need to
get behind this effort because it is a very significant new focus for NASA."

So, where does Lori Garver really stand? Does it depend on the audience?
