You do know that the space shuttle and the soyuz are designed for two diff. things really. and Nasa still does launch using rockets also. Not trying to argue or make a who's better war, cuz I always feel that we put peopel into space as a race, not as nations. However, the Soyuz and Shuttle is like comparing apples to oranges.
The only thing I'm aware of that the shuttle can do that the Soyuz can't is bringing a satellite back from orbit, and I belive that's only been done a few times. Both are capable of bringing supplies to the ISS, which is the short term future of space exploration.
The shuttle is also reusable, and can launch more people into space, and it does carry a might higher payload then the Soyuz. The shuttle is a greater space craft. Even though both are very good craft. Theres a reason the Russians had/attempted to have a space shuttle. I like them both though, they're amazing creations. :)

It takes off slowly but I think it's good, it's probably a good ride to space, not so rough like in the space shuttle.

it is a way rougher ride to space than the space shuttle. and a way rough re-entry

Soyuz...a time honored, and very proven launch system.

So much simpler than the space shuttle, and yet so effective.
