Because he got the same information as everyone else, that although the bridges had some issues, they were deemed safe by engineers.
As far as tax cuts go, nice try. Tax cuts have proven to help the economy grow, and therefore create MORE tax revenue.
Too tough a concept for you I guess.

Well, considering that the bridge got bad ratings all through the 90's when democrats were RAISING taxes, I don't see how tax cuts made the bridge any worse.

Tax cuts haven't contributed in the least. Earmarks on the other hand have. We give billions of dollars in earmarks annually. Since taking power the Dems have placed 32000, yes 32000 in pending legislation. If we used our tax dollars for what our founding fathers intended, infrastructure and defense, we wouldn't have these problems.

I don't know - why didn't the DEMOCRAT GOVERNORS of all the other states in the US with bad bridges warn their people of bad bridges? BTW - It seems most of the states in the US have bad bridges so the DEM's definitely aren't immune from fault.

Because the DOT is responsible for that. You can't blame a Governor for everything. Not everything can be explained with politics either.

Perhaps Jessie the body smashed the bridge. My answer is as bad as this question.

And I heard someone accuse Democrats of politicizing the bridge failure.
Such imagination they have.

Forget mr. CT hedoesn't realize the other state haven't had a bridge to fall. And since it is part of I 35 it will fall partly to the federal government. It is an interstate highway and bridge. Those are covered partly also by the federal government. Where are they on this one.

the same reason the DEMOCRATIC DEPT OF TRANSPORTATION director didnt. actually, the governor probably never seen the report, as it is a MDOT matter.
