Pres. Kerry's NASA

(ed kyle) made the phosphor on my monitor glow in such a way as to indicate that: (Christopher M. Jones) wrote in message . com... (Since we're talking about President Kerry I'm assuming we're deep into fantasy land.) The polls have Kerry even with Bush right now, That's only temporary. Kerry had a good month, and Bush a bad one. Today's polls bear zero information about what November's will. |

But in the end, he did order the redesign. ----== Posted via Newsfeed.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeed.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 100,000 Newsgroups ---= 19 East/West-Coast Specialized Servers - Total Privacy via Encryption =--- |

He was in the "It's not one of my major issues" school. Does that article give the breakdown of the advisors? |

John F. Kennedy, anyone?
Kennedy wasn't a big supporter of NASA when he came in. He'd hit Eisenhower over the head with what turned out to be a nonexistant missile gap, but doing something with NASA didn't become a priority until after (a) the Soviets orbited Yuri Gagarin, and (b) the Bay of Pigs. And Kennedy goes down in history as the Space President despite all the protestations of his brother. My, isn't history funny? "Wait a minute, hes supposed to be a weak liberal soft on defense, and big on social programs!" But Kennedy was assasinated before he could be anything other that the Space President, that's life, and Ted Kennedy will never live this down. Tom |
