		<description><![CDATA[This reads, well, bizarrely (is that a word?).  Note that two of the speakers are from liberal lobbying groups and the third is not known as a liberal (but has willingly engaged them constructively).  Who is really sponsoring this?

But the overall announcement is itself all over the map.  For instance, what exactly is meant by &quot;Restoring America&#039;s Leadership in Space&quot;?  If the United States has lost its space leadership, who currently has it?  And how is that defined?  And it looks like most of the subjects pertain to military space, not civil space.

I suspect that the person who wrote the press release is not exactly fluent in these issues.  As I noted a few months ago, &quot;leadership&quot; is not a word that is often used in the American space program.  It used to be very common, but not anymore.  So its use here seems anachronistic.
