>>a pork barrel boondoggle of epic proportion.
"I told you so...this doesn't pass the sniff test"--the late Jerry Williams, longtime talk radio host (enemy of Dukakis, etc...remember The Governors? Jerry, Howie Carr, and
Barb Anderson...
Jerry Willams usually didn't pass the sniff test, especially after getting his ass periodically roasted when he debated Avi Nelson...
Well in reality this was just a slow motion version of Katrina/New Orleans/Louisiana local corruption and wast of Federal provided Pork/money that they will not be able to "delegate the blame up" to being Bush's Fault...
It just took a special law for the current governor to even get permission to inspect the BIG DIG
How can it be the Republican Governors fault if it took a NEW LAW to even let the REPUBLICAN governors look at the damn project.
Democrats were not about to let a Republican governor take a look at that level of corruption. They would not even let the Governor fire the man in charge of the project. He tried.
