More Sour Grapes From Mike Griffin

Former NASA boss Mike Griffin says no new rocket until a new president
“Panelists were less positive on when NASA will get the green light to build the rocket. Views ranged from “we’re getting closer” to “it’s a brutal time for budgets and it’s not going to get any easier” to a flat prediction that it won’t come until the Obama administration goes. That assessment came from former NASA administrator Mike Griffin, a steady critic of the White House that replaced him as NASA chief and killed the rocket program Griffin was leading. Called Constellation, that program included two bigger rockets, one after the other, ending with a heavy-lift rocket like Congress still wants.”
