I Would Have Expected Better...

The man's the leader of the free world, the most powerful nation on the face of the planet. An agency of the government you run is launching 7 humans into space... And you're watching it happen on a dinky 19 inch WalMart special TV? What's wrong with the picture? Seriously?

I'm all for fiscal responsibility in the government, but heck walk into the airport and TSA has dozens of plasma screens all over at their checkpoints displaying the same low res images and messages over and over. Go over to DOT headquarters and they have plasma screens at EVERY entrance. Couldn't they get the poor man a quality HD set for him to watch the launch on?!?!?!?!
