Bridge Over The River WHY

Once more, the politicians and media are wading deeply into the "Blame Game" long before the last of the unfortunate victims from the Minneapolis bridge collapse have been recovered from their watery graves. WHY?

I'll tell you why. It's not OUR fault, that's why!
  • It's not OUR fault that government officials have failed to provide for infrastructure maintenance!
  • It's not OUR fault that no-one in Washington DC, Albany, New York, or any other state capitol has done anything to keep their citizens safe on the roadways, rails, or air routes of this country.
  • It's not OUR fault that politicians spend Billions of dollars to make sure you can't get a steak knife onto a cruise ship or (until recently) a Bic lighter on an airplane.
  • It's not OUR fault these same politicians are allowed to posture and pontificate to the media about "Protecting the Homeland" while doing absolutely nothing to MAINTAIN the homeland.
  • It's not OUR fault that a long succession of Presidents, Cabinet Secretaries, Governors, Mayors, Council members, and Directors of numerous agencies have been totally UNACCOUNTABLE to the voters, the citizens of this great nation.

Wait a minute! IT IS OUR OWN DAMN FAULT!!!!!!!

While I fully agree it is our fault, in this "great" state of FL the chances of voting any of our pontificators out is slim to none. Our "gray" population here would never allow a democrat or (gasp) a liberal politician of any genre in to even try to make changes.
