I really thought this was a joke when I first heard it. How this is not the number one story on the news is beside me. He actually says that the new roads and bridges that Obama promised should not be built by skilled or WHITE construction workers, but minorities, women and the UNSKILLED.
.....Are you here for a job doing iron work on this new bridge?
....."I AM"
.....Do you have any experience?
....FOURTEEN YEARS IN THE IRON BUSINESS AND $ BRIDGE CONSTRUCTIONS
....Hum...sorry you have to much experience, we are going to go with Fred over there. He has been unemployed for the past 4 years and is not skilled in construction. He is also....uh....well...not white.
What in the world have we just gotten ourselves into? I am all for getting people to work but are roads and bridges the place to start?
Your comments are greatly needed on this one!!!!

Maybe all the people with felony convictions will be there too
Wait, maybe I'll finally get a job
In a post on my blog a while back I swore to never talk politics again. Your right, this is absolutely crazy. I preached that certain groups would have a different perception after Obama's election...i just didn't think it would be in his administration.
I am taking the ferry.
