It's not a race, we'll get there eventually. Manned space exploration is horrendously expensive, and we as a country have decided to spend our tax dollars on other things. When we stop killing each other as a species, we can spend a lot less on the military, and space exploration will accellerate. You tell me when that will happen.
Sure, I'm disappointed that I won't be retiring on the moon or Mars, or vacationing on the orbiting Hilton, or taking a cruise to the moons of Saturn, but our descendants surely will. I'm good with that.

It's worse than sad. It's a giant betrayal of all the brave people who worked so hard, and those who died, to achieve the landings. In a way, I feel it's a betrayal of our species.
