it was global warming caused it....local affiliate news babe being interviewed by the national parent news network (i was jumping around...dont remember which), said something about how the temperatures had been “... near 100 for at least a week now” when asked by an equally vapid network type if there was any possible explanations for the collapse.
Yes darling that concrete and steel just goes to hell at 100°F. What a moron.
this is from yahoo news canada andf I gues a rueters story.
Rep. James Oberstar, the Minnesota Democrat who chairs the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, blamed President George W. Bush’s administration for shortchanging road and bridge repair in a highway funding bill two years ago.
Bush, he said, “failed to support a robust investment in surface transportation,” adding the president insisted on only $2 billion a year for bridge reconstruction when lawmakers were pushing for $3 billion a year.

100°F can apparently weaken steel, but apparently a few thousand can't. I wish these leftists would get their stories straight.
