Boehner backpedals on stimulus comments

[Swede]

In other words,he moves the goal posts.


When U.S. House Minority Leader John Boehner told a newscaster Sunday that not a single stimulus-funded road contract in his home state of Ohio had been let, he was wrong.

The Ohio Department of Transportation has OK'd 52 stimulus-funded road and bridge projects at a cost of nearly $84 million.

2. I could have pointed to the culvert replacement with a bridge not three miles from my house.

The BIG ASS SIGN even read that it was partially done with stimulus money, as it had been shovel-ready and badly needed but was waiting for enough funding to start the project.

Now that the bridge is in place, the road it carries can finally be fixed. That, too, will be partially funded with stimulus money and is scheduled to start next month.

Oh, and I live in Ohio, Boner you dumbass.
