How many other substandard bridges in Republican districts has the democrat-dominated congress been denying funds for replacement? They want to blame Bush for Minneapolis; Democrat Hypocrisy at it’s finest!

"Democrat-dominated Congress has twice rebuffed the Savannah Republican's efforts to win funds for the bridge."

I’ve got one adjacent to our property here in the Appalachian Zone. They’ve been trying to get the 35 million to get it done since 1992.

Its a one lane, depression era bridge, with wood flooring, the rest is entirely made of steel.

This is where the government works worst. Instead of there being a process where the rep has to get the money, how about the transportation department comes up with a formula: structure rating x vehicle use and we rate everything according to need. D’uh. That would make sense.

Georgia is a Red State, DEMS do not like us.

I’d be afraid to drive on anything called Skidaway. :)

This needs wider distribution. Have forwarded to some non-freepers.

What a great Ga. and the entire South idea for a GOP 11 state campaign ad. “Dems in Congress do not fund bridges, roads. Pubs tried but those Dems just wanted to fund their own pet projects.” The GOP should put these out immediately and flood Talk Radio and the blogs down there. If we find any other states where Dems in charge did not repair, blast them too. A reverse Katria effect might actually show voters that the Dems are the real hypocrites.
