Common Sense from McCain’s Mouth?

Filed under: Disasters | Republicans |

Hmmm...Senator McCain must have finally realized his Presidential aspirations are history, because he’s even making sense about the bulls**t game Congress plays with earmarks, and how the I-35W bridge collapse in Minneapolis could have been avoided if they had properly taken care of our infrastructure:

“We spent approximately $20 billion of that money on pork barrel, earmark projects,” said McCain. “Maybe if we had done it right, maybe some of that money would have gone to inspect those bridges and other bridges around the country. Maybe the 200,000 people who cross that bridge every day would have been safer than spending $233 million of your tax dollars on a bridge in Alaska to an island with 50 people on it.”

Are you listening, Senator Stevens?
