Didn't Bush say something about cutting government programs that
don't work?
President Bush's planned ballistic missile shield suffered another setback on Monday when an interceptor missile again failed to launch during a test of the U.S. missile defense system.
The Pentagon's Missile Defense Agency said it could not complete the planned $85 million repeat of a failed December test after the interceptor missile failed to launch from its base in the Pacific Ocean.
To be clear -- they can't even get the darn missile to launch. $8.8 billion will be spent on the program in 2006.
