Ever driven in Germany... the major roads (Autobahns = Interstate type US roads) are amazing how smooth and well designed they are... they drain properly, they are banked properly and they are repaired before they become a hazard.. they are also better drivers than typical americans Even the fast drivers DO NOT hang out in the fast lane.. they pass and move over, pass and move over

Heck, even New Hampshire roads are better than any road in Massachuisetts (except any road that a politician lives on!)
I was really insulted by the flunky that they threw in front of the camera last night, trying to explain why they waited over a month to disclose this lastest fustercluck with the big dig.
He had the hardest time trying to complete a full coherent sentence.
Maybe he should have had a teleprompter to organize his thoughts so that he wouldn't have come off sounding like a complete idiot.
Even worse was their idiotic solution to the problem: just move the clips over.
How the hell is that going to solve the problem? All they are doing is postponing the inevitable, which will lead to another accident/death.

Doesn't help some people! Politicians in DC being a prime example. |

The 128 trek is brutal. The roads in Gloucester are pretty bad in some spots, is it still considered a pothole if it's over a foot deep?

Really? I'm not sure when you were last in the N. Conway/Bartlett area, but those roads are far worse than the roads I'm driving on in Mass. Route 16 and 302 are terrible, and the secondary roads are much worse. I was up there last week from Thursday till Sunday and need a chiropractor visit after driving on those roads for 4 days. I know you like to blame everything on MA state employees, but sometimes the blame needs to go to Mother Nature. She can be a real bitch at times. Or, the simple solution would be to move somewhere where there are no frost heaves. Then, you'd have to complain about the heat and/or humidity. |
Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
