I'm sorry. I know Coburn's amendment was symbolic, but I'd much rather send money to the bridge to nowhere than anywhere near the corrupt Louisiana political machine.

I guess it's time the spread the corruption to Alaska, right?

That's the long-term effect of government spending like this.

Or maybe I suppose this spending is itself a form of corruption. At least of Republican principles.

Why would Alaska want the dough spent on a bridge, which they can't eat, which can't care for their illnesses, which won't educate them? If there must be largesse surely there are smarter things to put the largesse towards.
