Ray,

If you feel strongly about it, write to your elected
representatives and make sure they don't fund SETI in the
future. I think they already are privately based at this point.
But some might argue that any effort at all is better than no
effort at all, and at least this keeps a focus outward.

Unfortunately, I fear that we will face far more difficult
economic issues that will likely preclude a lot of exploration
in the near future.
