Administration dishes out another bloated no-bid contract

I know the GOP likes to think of themselves as fiscal conservatives but with every opportunity to actually connect actions to words since 2000, they've failed miserably and have proven themselves to be frauds. Management of just about every significant project (Iraq, Afghanistan, Katrina, DHS) has been chaotic with predictable and poor results. Considering the lack of success in the business world that Bush had, this comes as no surprise.

Besides the infamous no-bid contracts for Halliburton that have been shown to be lucrative to the company while less so for US taxpayers who have been overcharged, DHS has also joined in the act. Mission-creep has ballooned a project with Booz Allen, the pricey consulting organization, from $2m up to a shocking $124m in just a few short years. The obvious lack of management skills or financial restraint strikes again.
