Yup; he actually wanted a five-year plan. He said it openly.

Hey B-Rock, what happened to the 1 trillion spent 7 years ago for those shovel ready jobs?

[Jane Long]

The highway bill is nothing more than a guaranteed slush fund for the DC Cartel.

What happened to all of 0bie’s shovel ready jobs from seven years ago? Oh, that’s right....they’ve ALL already absconded with that (taxpayer) $$.

[Paladin2]

How’s the 5 yr plan working out for electric cars? Solar power? 0DontCare?

[GeronL]

China does it with manual laborers paid a pittance and many of their projects don’t benefit the people anyway. They have trash and dead animals in their rivers, raw sewage pumped into them.

[Sacajaweau]

I think I read that there have been 34 of these short term bills....which brings us into the past when the Dems had both houses.

[Southack]

Cruz Won.

“We can’t keep on funding transportation by the seat of our pants,”

Mmmm... that's exactly how the government has been funded ever since the DEMocraps took over Congress back during the Bush years....

[kingu]

‘Hey! House Republicans! I promised a whole lot of money for those Democrat campaign fundraisers I went to, hurry up and approve so I can deliver on my billions for millions!’

[Daffynition]

**... I guarantee you that’s not how China, Germany and other countries around the world handle their infrastructure.**

Hussein's plan...

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

Waiting for the FIRST THING in six years that IS his fault.

[outofsalt]

Shovel ready recovery here we come!

[Gaffer]

“We can’t keep on funding transportation by the seat of our pants,”

You seem to be pulling your governance out of your a$$, Obama. If I were a Congressman, I'd stop every funding bill I could that would go to you.

Anything you want to do, fund, order or even think about, I want to stop.

[PghBaldy]

Once again, he denigrates this country. What a horrible man.

[trebb]

Funny ow all the last-minute/continuing resolution/no budget crap really began in earnest under Dingy Harry as he and the Dims opted to go that route to protect Obama’s back and make it easier than ever for taxpayer money to disappear down the toilet....and Obama had no problem with it.

[Awgie]

Another trap successfully fallen into my the Republican Congressional Gang that couldn't shoot straight.

“Mommy why does those mean old white men not want us to have nice new modern safe highways?”

Low-Info Mommy, “Because those angry old white men in Congress are greedy racist sexist homophobes who want you to die when you drive across a crumbling old bridge.”

Boehner and McConnell are fools. The only time they show any push back is when a rogue repub speaks up, then the putrid old farts muster some energy.

But against Obama they seem utterly impotent.
