"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons." -- Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002

Hillary Clinton's promise of a robust space program is the least she can do after the Clintons traded U.S. security for campaign cash. Thanks to Bill, when we return to the moon, China will be waiting.Sen. Clinton made the promise earlier this month, on the 50th anniversary of Sputnik, as part of her plan to reclaim America's lead in science and technology.The irony is, that lead is now being challenged by China, whose great leap forward in missile and space technology was aided by the Clintons in exchange for campaign contributions.Last Wednesday, China launched its first lunar probe, the Chang'e 1 lunar orbiter, named after a mythical Chinese goddess who flew to the moon. The 5,070-pound probe was launched from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in Sichuan province aboard a Long March 3A rocket. The probe is expected to send back its first photos in November and to conduct exploration of the moon for a year.The Long March has proved to be a reliable Chinese launch vehicle, but it wasn't always so. After the failed launch of a satellite built by Loral Space and Communications (NASDAQ:LORL) Ltd. attached to a Chinese rocket in February 1996, Loral provided 200 pages of data to China's Great Wall Industry Corp. to correct the guidance system problems of their "Long March" rockets, which blew up 75% of the time.The export of such data, which also are applicable to the guidance system of ICBMs, had been banned for national security reasons since the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre -- until President Clinton granted a waiver.
