Details and quote here. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nevada), on the bridge collapse in Minnesota of yesterday, immediately begins the blame game and finger-pointing: at President Bush, obviously: "Politicians in Washington, D.C. began finger-pointing and blaming each other Thursday following the bridge collapse in Minnesota. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said the Minnesota bridge tragedy is a wakeup call on America's deteriorating infrastructure. "Since 9/11 we have taken our eye off the ball," said Reid, suggesting infrastructure spending has taken a back seat to spending on the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. "(The bridge disaster) really should be a wakeup call for America," said Reid, "a wakeup call to America because we have an infrastructure that is deteriorated and deteriorating. Bridges, dams, highways, water systems, sewage systems."
They're still pulling people out of the water up there in Minneapolis, and Senator Reid is already busy playing partisan politics with it and blaming Bush??? Contemptible.
