Taxpayers Taken for A Ride.. On a Skateboard

The City Of Pawtucket gets a Skate Board Park as part of the Friday the 13th Stimulus Package. Obama promised money would be spent on “critical” projects. City of Pawtucket is in deep trouble, the US Taxpayer and Taxpayers for generations to come, are all very happy to save the city of Pawtucket with this most “critical” need project.

FYI.. Rhode Island’s. Rep Patrick Kennedy and Senator Jack Reed both sit on the powerful panels that have authority over all the federal gov’s DISCRETIONARY spending ... Appropriations Committees

That’s dumb. Our small town got a skateboard park with a grant from Tyco, I think it was. A grant, anyway. By using Detainees to build the park, we also got a basketball court built with the same grant.

But then, his knickname is 0dumbo.

A skate park...

How about a park with an open area surrounding a small stage. On that stage a bucket of hot tar, some feathers, and a rack suitable for holding the congress persons wasting tax payer dollars.

The concessions business for angry crowds to enjoy this would certainly help stimulate the economy. Hell, I’d pay to see it.
