Why can't we get the Demoncrats to do something sneaky, like write a bill offficially admiring the Repukes in Congress for their steadfast devotion to governance, and then add an infrastructure amendment at the last second?

Who needs infrastructure when you can motor on the Koch Causeway toll road, the Sheldon Adelson toll bridge, the Trump Throughway toll highway. . . .

Ha ha, we've been trying "private" toll roads in SoCal for some years now. The winning contractors always seem whine all the way to the bank and then demand a subsidy.

Cue Republicans complaining the bill is too expensive and full of waste (without offering alternative bill) in 3, 2, 1...

Oddly, all roads to La Jolla are toll-free.<br /><br /><br />BTW, <i>never</i> go to Oceanside.
