As much as I believe we'll need technical defense against techical foes for the rest of the century, these both look like boondoggles.

Under this administration I just get the feeling $74b could go up in smoke, with nothing to show but happy contractors and a bunch of excuses, and secret excuses at that !

That's because Bush's Carlyle group already IPO'd the United Defense stock and reaped their profit. They have onlly begun stuffing the missle defense dollars into their accounts.
