Not long ago, during one of our spelunking expeditions through the dark caverns that take up all the space inside Peggy Noonan’s skull, we found her wondering why, in the debate over health insurance reform, we were not talking about medical research and cures, and how doing something like curing Alzheimer’s now could keep down health care costs in the future. As we wrote at the time:
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?
&quot;Grunwald even quotes Republicans leaders Mitch McConnell and Eric Cantor as speaking approvingly of infrastructure projects <i>in their home districts.</i>&quot;
Ha ha, we&#039;ve been trying &quot;private&quot; 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.

GM pretty much did that with the streetcars.
I bet the road starts to suffer from poor maintnance, sometime after year 40.
Sounds like sleep apnea.
Who needs infrastructure when you can motor on the Koch Causeway toll road, the Sheldon Adelson toll bridge, the Trump Throughway toll highway. . . .

Silly Wonkette - roads can&#039;t vote or make campaign contributions.
Now CEOs who get tax cuts, on the other hand...
BTW -- that&#039;s one of Kinkade&#039;s lesser-known works.

What a waste! Jesus only needed a road to Damascus.

Cue Republicans complaining the bill is too expensive and full of waste (without offering alternative bill) in 3, 2, 1...
That same free-market competition will really change the face of medical research.
Oddly, all roads to La Jolla are toll-free.<br /><br /><br />BTW, <i>never</i> go to Oceanside.
