McCain Misses On Minnesota Bridge Collapse

McCain blames Minnesota bridge collapse on wasted money

Quote:
Republican John McCain said Wednesday that the bridge collapse in Minnesota that killed 13 people last year would not have happened if Congress had not wasted so much money on pork-barrel spending.

Now, most of us here can't stand pork-barrel spending but blaming that tragedy on the practice instead of the Sixteen fractured gusset plates is just plain disingenuous when there really was no need to be!

There are plenty of real examples for pork one could point too... this ain't one of them.

Johnny Mac's hammer is Pork Barrel SpendingTM - and all the world is a nail to one who holds such a hammer.

Pretty soon, allergy season will be the fault of Pork Barrel SpendingTM. And crabgrass. And any number of ills that have, well, nothing to do with pork barrel spending.
