If you need the green line infrastructure to support the Olympics, it makes sense to at least ask the question. Especially if you're trying to get the Federal government to match dollar for dollar...

I didn't say it was stupid, I was it was desperate. He wants this bid pretty much no matter what (including already cutting housing) and will find the accounting to make it seem decent. If there were a decent financial plan here, he wouldn't need to be reaching so much.
