If dems 'fixed' the roads and bridges they couldn't use the lie for the next election... that could be a big problem...

So they'll never fix the roads and bridges.

And blacks will never 'get their piece of the pie'... not if dems have anything to do with it. Promises only work with longing...

The real kicker is that Congress allocate hundreds of billions of dollars for roads and bridges every year, Dem pres. or Pubbie pres., and yet things don't seem to get fixed very fast.

Some years ago someone posted the numbers spent during the Clinton and Bush administrations and it was huge. At that time the Dems were accusing Bush of failing to fix the infrastructure. First of all Congress sets the spending and all presidents do is squiggle their name on the bill and they always do that. Secondly the spending when Bush was pres. was far more than when Slick Willie was.
