Round 2:

"The space shuttle program ain't over till Congress says it's over. A
Senate committee is working on a bill that would add an extra shuttle
flight next year, as well as defy some of President Obama's scaled-down
NASA plans"

I thought Jim Morin's latest cartoon was good too.

And then we'll need that back-up rescue Shuttle for that "final" flight,
and as long as that's ready to go, we should launch it too...after we
get another one ready to serve as a rescue ship for it.
And so it will go, year after year, driving the cost per launch right
through the already sky-high roof, till that evil man is out of the
(formerly) White House.
What Obama should do next is agree to the extra Shuttle flight...this
flight to take Muslim schoolchildren to visit the ISS.
