6 IT Projects, $8 Billion Over Budget At Dept. of Defense

Posted by Soulskill on from the par-for-the-course dept.

McGruber writes "The Federal Times has the stunning (but not surprising) news that a new audit found six Defense Department modernization projects to be a combined $8 billion — or 110 percent — over budget. The projects are also suffering from years-long schedule delays. In 1998, work began on the Army's Logistics Modernization Program (LMP). In April 2010, the General Accounting Office issued a report titled 'Actions Needed to Improve Implementation of the Army Logistics Modernization Program' about the status of LMP. LMP is now scheduled to be fully deployed in September 2016, 12 years later than originally scheduled, and 18 years after development first began! (Development of the oft-maligned Duke Nukem Forever only took 15 years.)"

    Holy shit black women are ugly. I mean there's a couple semihot ones but most of them are ugly as fuck.

    If it isn't them topping the obesity stats or their frizzy nappy just-stuck-my-finger-in-the-light-socket hair, it's their simian faces and squashed noses. Worst of all is there severe militaristic temperament most of em have. Even that's not as bad as the ghetto bullshit no man should ever put up with.

    NOTE TO ALL WOMEN: no man wants to raise some other man's bastard kids. Blacks with all their broken families especially don't seem to understand that. They don't realize that growin' up not knowing who your daddy is, well that shit's not normal. It means daddy and mommy both fucked up.
