“It is well settled that the United States Court of Federal Claims lacks — and its predecessor the United States Claims Court lacked — jurisdiction to entertain tort claims. The Tucker Act expressly provides that the “United States Court of Federal Claims shall have jurisdiction ... in cases not sounding in tort.” 28 U.S.C. § 1491 (a)(1) (1988) (emphasis added), as amended by Federal Courts Administration Act of 1992, Pub.L. No. 102-572, § 902 (a), 106 Stat. 4506 ; see Aetna Casualty and Surety Co. v. United States, 655 F.2d 1047, 1059 , 228 Ct.Cl. 146 (1981).”
