I love it when the circular firing squad locks & loads.

McConnell has no idea how it got there, but rest assured, he’ll take credit for it in some ad of his next year.

Here’s one for you, the Transportation Cabinet of Kentucky released a letter yesterday, 10/16/13, giving notice that they will be soliciting bids for a NEW 3,600’± bridge over Kentucky Lake on highway 68. They are having a contractor information meeting on October 22, 2013 at 1:30PM at Kenlake State Resort Park, Hardin, Kentucky. They had this thing ready and waiting for the cave, they had to have known the money was coming, that’s why they did the shutdown and backed up against the debt ceiling deadline, so they could get personal favors out of the deal and using their position to force that deal. The Republicans, though not all, are in it with the Democrats and they are divvying up our money.

Omission – the letter states it is a federally funded project.

With inflation, it was 8,223,684 pieces of silver (assuming the pieces are “American Eagles” as a net price of $24 per)

Translation: “overturned a Department wide culture that favored organized labor over job creation.” really means “…overturned a Department wide culture that favored organized labor over moneyed interests.”

Who is surprised? The is GOP “Business as Usual.” Fiscal Responsibility and budget cuts are only for the projects and programs they don’t like or that don’t help their constituents.

I never said Dems were blameless. But the Repubs love defense spending and its pet contractors, cushy earmarks, farm subsidies, corporate welfare schemes, etc., etc. The Dems didn’t shut down the government over debt, or was it the budget, or was it Obamacare? What was it?

Could be true. Might believe this story, if it weren’t on FITS. I’ll never forget this boy his start by claiming to have an affair with a married woman. Her kids be damned. However, it can be educational to occasionally click on certain Google news alerts, just to see what the ‘fringe’ is saying that day. This story could be true. You just never can tell on this blog.
