Lori Garver Loses Her Soul

There was a debate--of sorts--between the Bush and Kerry Campaigns on
space policy. Looks like the Bush Campaign won on the princible that
something always beats nothing.

I have never before, by the way, seen Lori Garver's naked ambition
depicted so vividly, though I have been away of it for a decade and a
half. It seems that she'll willing to see human space flight itself
end, if only she could be put in charge of NASA. To paraphrase John
Bolt, "Lori, it little profits a man to gain the whole world at the
cost of his soul. But NASA Administrator?"

I would like to see coverage from someone other than Keith Cowing;
I like Keith's work in general, but he seems to have had a serious
beef with Lori Garver for some time now, and I'm not sure how
unbiased the reporting was here.

I am concerned about the specifics mentioned, however.

Based on what Ms. Garver said in July (?), she seemed seriously uninformed
(ready, fire, aim).

First, Mark, you once again equate "human spaceflight" with NASA.

Do you have any evidence that Mike Melvill and Brian Binnie are not
human? A DNA test, perhaps?

Second, Lori hasn't said she was against any of your beloved NASA
programs. She said the Bush administration wasn't supporting them with
sufficient funding. If you were intellectually consistent, instead of
partisan, you would praise her for that.

Third, even if what you say were true, I didn't realize that failing
to support NASA was a mortal sin or that you had the power to condemn
souls to hell. Are you God -- or the other guy? :-)
