LaHood takes exception to AP article on road stimulus job locations LaHood takes exception to AP article on road stimulus job locations Quote: WASHINGTON — Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood this afternoon took exception to an Associated Press article that reported that counties suffering the most from job losses stand to receive the least help from President Barack Obama's plan to spend billions of stimulus dollars on roads and bridges. “I was disappointed to read today that the Associated Press does not believe that the Recovery Act is doing a good job creating work for Americans who are unemployed. Nothing could be further from the truth,” LaHood wrote in his blog on the DOT’s Web site. more here>> LaHood takes exception to AP article on road stimulus job locations __________________

Well to be honest, I wouldn't trust the AP in their coverage...they placed Santa Barbara 100 miles WEST of Los Angeles, on day two of the fire. __________________ When every boat has sailed away, And every path is marked and paid, When every road has had it's say, Then I'll be bringing me back home to stay. When every town looks just the same, And every choice gets hard to make, When every map is put away, Then I'll be bringing me back home to stay. Reach out to me, Call out my name, And I will bring you back again today.
