Fly me to the moon ou Dark side of the moon? Newt le visionnaire: il défend sa base lunaire.


Une nation de défis et de grands projets... Ce que Gingrich ne précise pas, c'est que les autres qu'il mentionne était "nécessaire" dans le contexte de l'époque. La lune? Maintenant? Pourquoi pas écouter le classique Fly me to the moon interpréter par Sinatra? Attention Mr Gingrich, on y parle aussi de Jupiter et Mars.

 

"Newt Gingrich defended his proposal for a permanent base on the moon in a speech to Republicans in West Palm Beach Saturday night, calling it a "bold, visionary, dramatic opportunity for America." "We will not turn to our grandchildren and say, 'We are the generation that let the Chinese dominate space," Gingrich said, calling the moon-shot plan a challenge worthy of "a big country." "We've always had dreams. We've gone west. We invented the airplane. We invented the mass-produced car. We built the Panama Canal," Gingrich said. Gingrich told the audience here at the Palm Beach County Lincoln Day Dinner that he wanted to run a campaign on ideas at the level of building a transcontinental railroad or landing a man on the moon. "I want to say something about the party we should be - not the party we are, but the party we should be," Gingrich said, as he launched into the big-ideas section of his speech. He closed in similarly grand terms, pledging to give "my life, my fortune and my sacred honor" in the cause of leading the country."
