no kidding, NASA as an organization may be bloated and ineffective at times, but the program nees beter leadership, more streamlined efficiency. It is a vital program.

While I am a bit of a NASA bagger, I agree that this is the main problem, that it does indeed need to be streamlined. I don't think it should be disbanded but it does definitely need some fat trimmed and needs to be made to run more efficiently. Today's explosion wasn't necessarily a result of that bloat. The bloat has caused NASA to become a huge money pit that has carelessly spent a lot of taxpayer dollars on unnecessary things.

We defiinitely need a strong space program but what's wrong with holding NASA accountable for some of the bloat and careless spending? I don't want to see NASA done away with, just the same accountability as people in this country want applied to politicians....

I should get offf my NASA rant as I've had some probems with the way NASA has been run before today...
