Washington (LHJ)
President George W. Bush today announced sweeping changes to America's space exploration goals, and plans to put a permanent base on the moon, and visit Mars in the next fifteen years.
The news was received with mixed reactions at home, with many people feeling that more attention should be paid to propping up an ailing medicare system, and improving K-12 Education.
However in a bizarre twist, President Bush addressed some of his speech specifically to captured Iraqi dictator Sadaam Hussein.
"I want to make this clear, Sadaam." said the president during his speech. "While you are being held in custody, Americans will be aggressively exploring Uranus."
Pundits were at a loss to explain the offhanded remark, other than to note that any trip to our Solar System's second most distant planet would take dacades, thus indicating that Hussein would be in captivity for some time.
