Minneapolis on the Bayou?
Bush visits the Minneapolis bridge collapse site and promises a 'robust response' to rebuild the Interstate 35W bridge. As the poster of the above YouTube video notes though, "[Bush] then goes on to slam the Democrats for not passing his spending bill yet. The irony of slamming government spending just after a bridge collapsed seems to be lost on [him]..." (to say nothing of the difference here in comparison to his government's response to the Hurricane Katrina disaster). Let me just try to be optimistic though and say that maybe Bush at least learned his lesson from what will go down as one of the two biggest failures during his administration?
