Has McDonnell Cost the State Four Hundred Million Dollars???

If Bob couldn't do his last job,
why should we trust him now?
Part II


"According to the Joint Legislative Audit and Review Commission, the company failed to deliver. It missed deadlines, inadequately planned how it would implement services and provided widely panned customer service.

Yet if Virginia wants to bail on the contract, it could cost taxpayers up to $400 million.

It's a dismayingly large cancellation fee but hardly surprising. Now that fresh eyes have looked at the contract, it is clear how much it favors the company.

Among its shortcomings, the contract spells out 74 milestones the company is supposed to meet. Only 14 carry penalties for missing them. The company could come in years late on the others and still be paid."

I'm guessing that Bob's "contract law" class at Christian Broadcasting Network Law School was a little light. Or maybe he was distracted by that thesis thing he was writing.

Do you even bother to read the article that you cited to Pedophile Boy? Here, for those mind-numbed moron readers of yours who don't:

"The contract goes back to 2003. Then-Gov. Mark Warner and the General Assembly agreed to pay the defense giant $2.3 billion over 10 years. In return, the company would upgrade aging state computer systems and maintain the new ones."

McDonnell wasn't the AG in 2003 Pedophile Boy. Now, I'm not saying that the article is correct, but that is what it says. In your rush to condemn someone who obviously has the morals that you so desperately lack, you have to resort to attacks that do not even have support in the article that you cited as authority. Perhaps if you kept your eyes off the crotches of 12 year old boys, you might be able to actually read the articles that are cited to in this piece.

Someone forgot their meds this morning. McDonnell should have paid more attention to the job he was elected to do instead of beginning his run for governor as soon as he got elected as AG. I betcha Deeds would have done a much better job of vetting the contract. McDonnell has a history of employing pedophiles Doe boy, maybe he'd give you a job. You already like to lie like Bob,
and if you're a drug dealer and wife beater you'd be simply irresistible to Taliban Bob.

John Doe when you reply to Bubby with true figures he just can't understand.Math is a subject Bubby has a major problem with.

John Doe: You got nothing son. No cite, no knowledge, no manners. You must be a Republican Sheeple!

VITA was created in 2003.

Northrop Grumman was selected as the INTERIM IT provider in November 2005 pending review of the terms of the contract award by AG McDonnell and approval by the GA. They were awarded $3.5 million.

The Northrop Grumman 10 year, $2 Billion contract was awarded in July 2006 with the blessing of the lawyer from Box-Top University: Bob McDonnell.

Thanks for playing!

Ker Slam! John Doe took a hard blow right to the head and seems to be dazed. He might be going down! The ref really needs to call this to a halt!

I "got no cite"? I blocked and pasted it directly from the cite to this article, Pedophile Breath. It's a direct quote (hence my lead in "Do you even bother to read the article that you cited...")

THEN, you turn around and spout supposed facts without any attribution. Your facts might be correct, and maybe the article that was cited by this blog is incorrect, but that does not change the fact that you LOVE little boys (if you know what I mean and I know that you do).
