lying is such a harsh term, i prefer "overly optimistic", it has a much nicer ring to it. these would be the same (generic) people that brought us the knowingly unworkable "star wars" program, that's chewed up god only knows how many billions. but, it provides jobs and earnings per share.
the b-1 bomber is probably the perfect example of a solution in search of a problem, costing billions; every single congressional district got a piece of a pie that the air force didn't want baked.
it would be great if i thought this would cease, with a democrat in the white house, and a solid democratic majority in both houses. fortunately, i'm not that deluded.
