He stated it was unlikely the CEV would be trashed. Which is another way
of saying he believes it's likely the CEV will be built.

Yes, that's a sensible interpretation.

as if he used the second form

No, you questioned his use of the work "unlikely."

it'll be built since we must have a shuttle replacment.

No, you weren't seconding his opinion, you were disagreeing with him.
Your exact words: "Unlikely? More like a sure thing."

Then later you wrote:

"What you guys don't get is this. When that time comes
if nothing else better/worthwhile is not ready to take the
place of the Vision. Then the entire manned space program
is all but finished from a lack of interest and purpose."
as if you were arguing against someone defending the longevity of Bush's
Vision.

When you improve reading comprehension you'll be better able to assess
what concepts others understand. Until then you are in no position to
tell anyone what they get or don't get.
