Vice President Joe Biden today will kick off the Obama administration’s “Recovery Summer,” a six-week-long push designed to highlight the jobs accompanying a surge in stimulus-funded projects to improve highways, parks, drinking water and other public works.

David Axelrod, a senior adviser to the president, said: “This summer will be the most active Recovery Act season yet, with thousands of highly-visible road, bridge, water and other infrastructure projects breaking ground across the country, giving the American people a first-hand look at the Recovery Act in their own backyards and making it crystal clear what the cost would have been of doing nothing.”

Biden, President Barack Obama and other administration officials will travel to more than two dozen Recovery Act project sites in coming weeks. On Friday, the president will travel to Columbus, Ohio, to mark the groundbreaking of the 10,000th Recovery Act road project to get under way.

And when it doesn’t become the “recovery” summer, I guess that means it’ll become the “endless decline” summer...

They’re waiting for someone to come along and do the actual work that they will take full credit for.

More likely they'll just put up signs on the road like they did after their first "recovery act" in 2009, and pretend that they're accomplishing something.

And they'll still take credit for it even though nothing was done. And think that no one notices......
