I'm not going to disagree that the Big Dig is a pork mess, but at least pin the blame on the right people in this case. The long since passed away Speaker of the House Tip O'Neill, when controlling the Democratic House when Reagan was President, lobbied to get this money funded for the Big Dig on a federal level. Kennedy may have some small hands in it, but Tip O'Neill is the main man and hes been dead years. In fact I think one of the tunnels is the Tip O'Neill tunnel. However, over the years, Kennedy, John Kerry and Mitt Romney have all called for probes and action against parts of the Big Dig, they are more part of the solution than the problem.
