OK , this time it's even more unbelievable than before . Sigh.. ..Liberal Democrat Senators and Congressmen are now hinting that the bridge collapse was the fault of the President . Liberal Websites are doing the same . Liberal idiots on this site are parroting it as well . Un-freakin-believable !!
Note to Libs - Whoever told you that the President is responsible for each state's bridges. . . WAS LYING . OK ? LYING . And it doesn't take but 5 minutes to research it for yourself .
In a related story , new research has come out showing that hatred is up 33% in the U.S. . . . Now , I've been tryin to make sense to you liberals for quite some time , and I don't care if you want to disagree on POLICY , but holy sh_t man, enough is enough with your hatred . This is stupid and destroying our country . Nevermind the fact that there are many fools and young people who believe anything they read that's negative .
Do You Agree That This Idiotic Hatred Must Stop ?

Robot - No man . The federal government allocates money to each state , and then each state decides which bridges to repair or replace . It is the STATES RESPONSIBILITY . Please research . Mmmmmmk !!

Here you go, some real example of bridge money spending! All you need to do is google this and you would know the truth. The problem is, liberals don't want the truth, they want to Rant how bad it is, and whose to blame.
Republicans, beset by criticism over their spending priorities, have eliminated funding for two bridges in Alaska, which are perceived as prime example of pork-barrel spending. But the decision may be merely symbolic, as the money will still be given to Alaskan authorities to spend as they see fit. Last November, action was taken to remove the mandate from Congress to build the Bridge-to-Nowhere. But Alaskan officials announced that despite this wise action, Alaska would use its transportation money and spend $300 million to build this discredited project.
The Federal Highway Trust Fund Guarantees Funding Needed for Our Nation’s Roads and Bridges • The Federal Highway Trust Fund was established by the Federal-Aid Highway and the Highway Revenue Acts of 1956 to provide revenue needed to help build and improve the Interstate System and roads and bridges that are eligible for federal aid.
ST. PAUL, MN—Although many of its highways and bridges are in severe disrepair, the traditionally undemanding state of Minnesota isn't comfortable asking for more interstate funding, sources reported Monday.
"Oh, we wouldn't want to bother the U.S. government—they've got more than enough on their plate as it is," Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty said. "Most of the potholes on I-90 are less than four feet wide. We get by just fine. I wouldn't want anyone all the way over there in Washington to be worrying about little ol' us."
According to U.S. Department of Transportation records, Minnesota has not requested an increase in highway funds for 10 years, in spite of the fact that the majority of their roads are plagued by rutted or uneven surfaces, cracked pavement, potholes, and other deterioration

Right on the mark.
I've made similar comments in a few questions yesterday and obviously the liberal Y!A haven't received the proper education in reading or comprehension skills.
They can type and express rage like the wind but somehow there's a disconnect with munching on explicit details and purposely overlooking very key issues.
edit
loftitright...
Locally here in Minnesota MANY political leaders, Amy Klobuchar for one (she's a newly elected Democratic Senator) has stated that we should have raised gasoline taxes long ago instead of not raising them since 1988.
Again, raising state taxes has nothing to do with funding FEDERAL ROADS.
I swear to God she was "the TURNIP that fell off the truck!"

I agree with you completely.
As soon as I heard of the bridge collapsing I knew there would be fingers pointing at Bush claiming its all his fault... people pls calm down he isn't the root of all evil. They haven't even figured out why the bridge collapsed yet don't go jumping to conclusions. besides, just because the bridge fell doesn't mean they didn't have the money to fix it.

You gotta be kidding me, so what the left wing nuts are actually saying is that it's Bush's fault that he didn't take the time out of his daily schedule and pull out his engining Degree and fly out to Minn and personally inspect that particular bridge. Ohh, That's right qualified Federal engineering inspectors already told LIBERAL STATE GOVERNMENT OF MINNESOTA TO FIX THE DARN THING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Is there that much hate of Bush, in the left wing nuts? I would like to think Bush doesn't need to Micro manage every state program around the country. That's why we have state jobs and state government. To point the finger at Bush in this tragic accident just goes to show how much hate the Left wing nuts have. Grow up and get a clue and stop disrespecting the lives lost yesterday with your political Hate mongering.

Can you imagine the hatred from the libs if they do not win the White House???
They have torn into GW from day one. They cannot impeach him as he committed no crime.
As for the war ALL the libs voted for it. They said this before GW was President and that was with clintons Intel.
They just make me laugh. If they hate this country so much why don't they go to Cuba, Or with their friend penn to papa Chavez.

Do you have any specific statements made by Democratic political leaders? Internet sites, well, unless it is from a credible source they are to be ignored. Bridge inspections have been under heavy duty budget cuts the last 15 to 20 years, so, if anything is being said by a credible politicians, perhaps this is what is being inferred, discussed, or mentioned. I must honestly say, the GOP showed nothing but disdain for Clinton his entire tenure in office, so, in the polerized extreme context of our era, any blame game doesn't surprise me.

I fear that some will claim Bush blew up the bridge, as it was claimed for the WTC and the New Orleans levees.

You conservatives like to use the word hatred in an attempt to find sympathy for some of your own failings. If you believe that giving rich people tax cuts at the expense of the nations infrastructure than that's what you get. There's no money to get the job done, or it's done on the cheap. You talk about lying, no one does it better. The smear machine gets better funding. Stick it up your ***!!
