Parallels? What parallels.



Perhaps if you had stayed in school a little longer...

The hypocrisy here is amazing. Isn't anybody really listening to this
guy? Is anybody seeing who he is putting in charge of the different
agencies? ****, this guy is going to make the Pelosi and Ried crime
syndicate look like Boy Scouts... Remember, Pelosi and Reid campaigned
against Earmarks and then the first thing they did when they took over
was protect the authors from public scrutiny. Did you see one of the
"shovel ready" projects Obama wants to fund is a Mob Museum in Nevada?
snerk Here we go...

Cite, please? The Mayor of Las Vegas, Oscar Goodman, is *seeking*
Federal funding. No where will you find Obama stating he "wants" to fund
it.

I think we'll be seeing a lot of heavy and highway projects and other
federal construction that falls under the purview of Davis-Bacon and
prevailing wages.

This highway work should have been occurring for the last 40 years due
to it being funded by federal gasoline and diesel taxes.

Yup, there's been lots of infrastructure neglected. Hopefully, this
stimulus package will kill two birds, get the economy moving again, and
fix our crumbling bridges, and roads.

The Big Dig - oh joy. 15 Billion for what was supposed to be a 3
Billion project. 12 years in the making when it was supposed to take
7. Union featherbedding rampant. Cement contractors cheating on the
concrete. Bad epoxy leading to the death of some poor schmuck who was
on her way to the airport. 1.6 Billion in legal expenses. The
tunnels leak at a gazillion gallons a day. Tripled tolls on the Mass
Pike.

Yep - let's go for broke.

Pun intended.
