Due to a lack of funding, the International Space Station will be scuttled in 2016. It's expected to be completed in 2012, and then for four glorious years it will orbit earth and unite humanity, and then its $100,000,000 parts will make a very expensive shootings star across the night sky as it plummets into the Pacific.
While the International Space Station hasn't had much of a mission lately, and while American astronauts will now have to hitch rides on Russian space craft because NASA has no budget to replace the US space fleet, how else are earthlings supposed to find the other twelve tribes or invent cylons, or meet Spock?
And how is it with a 700 billion dollar stimulus bill we've got no one building a spaceship? I mean what the fuck? Jesus tap-dancing Christ, every week a group of eight people clean the street in front of my house. They'd be a lot better served if they were designing space suits because, well, my street doesn't get that dirty and it's a pain in the fucking ass to have to move my car. Then there's all this hooplah about the President's helicopter fleet needing an 11 billion dollar upgrade. Mr President I ask you: would it not be cooler to have a Presidential SPACE fleet? Answer, yes. Fuck yes.
