Why is it embarassing?

It's embarrassing because we should be making our own spacecraft and because NASA is considering doing business with a regime that is doing joint military exercises with China.

I suspect you are not aware of it, but the United States Army will be having a large scale military excercise with the Russian Army in the Moscow region in 2007.

I agree with you on the first part but on the second, they've had 5 military exercises with us this year and next year we are having a military exercise with them outside of Moscow. We, by the way, also have military liasons with China and are trying to sinch a port deal in Saigon...er Hochiman City.
