Try again, KH. Putting men on the Moon - ahead of the Soviets - was the goal of the Apollo Program. It met the goal it set out to achieve, therefore the Apollo Program was a success.

Unlike, say, the War on Drugs, War on Poverty, federal education and health care spending, and the ongoing wars in Iraq and Afghanistan - of those MASSIVE outlays of government spending, only the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, which ironically enough receive the most opposition to anything we are discussing, have achieved any measure of success.

Well, say I'm a congressman. I have an objective: "I wanna get me a blowjob." To meet this objective, I spend ten thousand dollars of taxpayer money to buy hookers, intending to get about ten really nice blowjobs out of it from as many different women. Instead, all of the hookers give me an extra job for paying so well, plus half of them offer to give me conventional sex at no extra charge. I have more than doubled my stated goals using a relatively small amount of money. Would you say I am a greater statesman than all the U.S. Presidents combined, or just greater than any single one?
