So is ol' Jim still trying to get his $60 million for the Bridge To Nowhere between Lone Star and Rimini? (Background: Congressman Clyburn is trying to get massive federal funding for a nine-mile bridge across the Congaree Swamp National Monument to connect two tiny towns in his district. There's virtually no economic justification for the bridge, he just wants the pork. He's gotten the enviroweenies up in arms over putting the bridge across an "environmentally sensitive wetland.")

Audobon Society estimates the bridge would be about $100 million so my earlier post was way high, but 100 million is still a lot of tax dollars.
