This was one of my first entries, comparing the failure of the Minnesota bridge to the failure of this community to adequately fund our own infrastructure.
"At the risk of being taken to task for comparing an actual tragedy to a potential tragedy, if you do not support the building of a new school to replace the old ones, how would you answer the Time Magazine or CNN reporters, or even Matt Drudge, covering the catastrophic failure of a component of a Morrisville school without resorting to blame shifting hyperbole and hypocrisy? The same set of conditions from Minneapolis exist right here in Morrisville. Money that we're unable or unwilling to spend to invest in infrastructure turns to disaster."
I'm very sorry to see my prediction come true. I hope the Emperor and all his chosen accomplices can sleep well knowing that just a day or two earlier, there would have been kindergarteners, first, and second graders in that school.

They'll sleep just fine. The blame shifting hyperbole and hypocrisy act as a powerful sedative.
