We have all heard of the bridge to nowhere but what about the latest from John Murtha, the John Murtha Airport. This airport has twenty passengers a day, and three daily flights to and from Washington, DC, I wonder why to Washington, D.C. In the Obama/Reid/Pelosi spending bill 200 million dollars went to this airport.

Sounds like the big "O" is paying someone else back for something. Murtha must have done something for "O" to get away with this much pork oik oink. This is really getting sickening. I read the stimulus bill, but you do not realize the enormous amount of idiocy until you see things like the size of this airport. I could not tell that it was bacically a private airport from the wording in the bill. Now I see it on you tube and you know what it really is. We are being decimated as a country. And there is no way to stop it short of a civil war. Shalom~Adoniah

Things like this is why earmark reform is needed. Basically we have 200 million dollars taken from some where, because government must take before it can give, and given to one man for his personal use.

I have no idea why all of that money went there. I think that is why this country is in so much debt right now as it is. The money is not spent right.
