bush to announce new missions to moon, mars
i was skeptical about the last announcement, and my job-hunting self remains skeptical about this one, but "An interagency task force led by Vice President Dick Cheney has been considering options for a space mission since summer," and:
"Three senior officials said Bush wants to aggressively reinvigorate the space program, which has been demoralized by a series of setbacks, including the space shuttle disaster last February that killed seven astronauts.
The officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Bush's announcement would come in the middle of next week."

also, since this was a fox news item, the ads on the page link to "collectable talking action figures of george w bush, george h w bush (sr)," "president george w bush in flight suit 12 inch action figure," and "george bush talking doll - action figure speaks 17 memorable phrases with the president's voice!"
