Is it just me?

Am I alone in wondering why on earth all this is taking so long? it struck me the other day that Kennedy ordered NASA to go to the Moon in '62 and they were there in '69. The SDR was the initial document which mentioned the intention to acquire 2 new carriers and that was published 9 years ago! We haven't even cut any metal yet!!
I may be a bit of a simpleton, but it really can't be that difficult? Or is it as I suspect that the army of consultants, contractors and time-wasters are taking a few too many expenses funded lunches?
If someone can put me right I would be most grateful....
