It's a tale as old as bosses. Many of them have big egos and think that because they're in charge that magically gives them expertise. So if you want to do something you either get them looking at something shiny or you make them think it's their idea.
I had a boss like that ages ago. If I wanted to work on something out of the ordinary I would plant the idea, then a few weeks later I would remind him that he brought it up a while ago. I used the fact that he had a million things going on so he never really remembered who brought it up. I didn't care that he got the credit because I got to work on cool things and expand my repertoire.
