There isn’t anything the policies of liberals ever improve.

Their world is a fantasy and a wasteland of failure and we all (ok 50% of us) get to pay for their policies.

How many of you know that the 787 billion stimulus is in Ryans budget and will be in every future budget if not removed.

We have a shovel-ready project on our southern border. If we’d spent this money on a border fence, it would be paying us back by now.

So the states cheated the federal government. All the states? Regardless of party in control?

Eisenhower built the interstate highway system because we needed to be able to land and take-off B-52's and other military transports at any place, at any time on the interstates as part of cold war strategy. He knew the safest place for bombers was away from the airports in the event of a war with the Soviets.

The automobile just enjoyed the byproduct.

They are repaving the four lane road in front of my office. This street was not in that bad condition. There are many streets I travel that are in far worse shape, but all they are doing on these streets is patching potholes. It’s obvious the goal of the Stimulus was to fund union jobs, not invest wisely.

Can you say “Hello Democrat Slush Fund for 2012’’! Biggest theft of the taxpayers money and no one is saying a peep about it.

...many states simply took the free federal money and shifted their own highway funds to meet other needs.

Other needs like teachers' unions.
