6. OMG, this is real!!!

Even the so-called “turtle tunnels” in Florida that Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) railed against — “Don’t tell the people of Kentucky they need to finance every turtle tunnel and solar-panel company on some bureaucrat’s wish list in order to get their bridges fixed” — were not frivolous but a “significant safety issue” as turtles and wildlife were “getting flattened by cars as they tried to cross” the road. Coburn said this project “will require $6 million more to finish,” when in reality, “the project was finished in September 2010 and came in under budget at $3 million.”
