Maybe it's something to do with the 'earmarks' that are not supposed to exist under the new transparent, open and effective spending of tax payer money....maybe?

i'd say they met that goal, just not in the manner most of us expected. and now there's talk about another 100 billion.

I'm not sure I understand the objection - is it the project in general or that it'll be named after Ted Kennedy?

yawn.

good to see your interest in how your taxes are spent.

Of course. Now keep crying us a river in avoidance of better uses of tax funds.

i'd have thought you'd have more to contribute to this thread rather than that above. even more disappointment from you.

Perhaps Charles, that is because your political perceptions of other people are way off the mark a lot of the time?

so you don't have anything to say about how your taxes are spent either? you agree with things like this in the op?

The story is dressed up a bit too - they say $1 in $5 to make it sound more than it is.

$25 million total.

Good. What this economy needs is a fast injection of capital. We need to be spending money.

Maybe they will have a garden in honor of Mary Jo Kopechne . One could hope .

i think an aquarium with her name would be fitting.

Yeah thats one idea but I am thinking something along the line of the ear harbor / WW2 memorial in Hawaii... over top the Arizona. (Isn;t that the ships name?)

Sure; folks could walk right out over the water and look down through the glass floor and see exactly where that poor woman sank to her death.

AS her body assumed water temp Ole Kennedy was already back at the party house crashed out.

You should be ashamed of yourself. That is not a joking matter.

he's not joking. the woman is dead, and a rich guy killed her and got away with it. you or i would go to jail for what he did.

It was an accident. He violated the law by waiting so long to report it. He didn't murder her as you claim. There was not ever a question of murder, it was that he broke the law by his actions after the accident.
