Light at the End of the Tunnel, alternative take

Moon base=ultimate insurance policy? I mean, just to be safe, we, by which I mean the human race, need extraterrestrial colonies.

This time it's got to be for real, not like that Mars announcement. (Ignore the lengthy timeframe and lack of specifics or funding commitments.) After all, what could the administration be trying to distract us from this time?

Oh yeah, we were going to Mars, weren't we? Weren't we also going to cure AIDS in Africa or something? I, too, would like to vote for getting people off this rock as soon as possible. As for possible distractors--I don't know, everything seems pretty much out in the open right now. Famous last words, I know.
