What Tea Party Lane might look like:

PacManDreaming: Sure beats driving down Dick Cheney Lane

I'd rather go hunting with Cheney than driving with Kennedy.

You know, making a mistake, owning up to it, and being thankful it wasn't a lot worse than it was vs driving drunk, ending up in a river, leaving a woman to drown, all to cover your own rear, and end up beloved by the left in spite of all of that.

Somacandra: I voted for Obama, but that was a seriously funny headline. Sense of humor folks. Sense of humor.

/not Subby

I'm not getting the funny.

FTA

Obama visited Orlando for two separate fundraisers on Tuesday, one of which was held at prominent attorney John Morgan's house in Heathrow.

An event as magical as any mono-rail.

Somacandra: I voted for Obama, but that was a seriously funny headline. Sense of humor folks. Sense of humor.

/not Subby

With a headline like that, I was going to say it has to be a Rick Scott approval. 3,999,999,998,000 to a shill company owned by a family member, and 2,000 to actual road construction.

you forgot "subject to random roadblocks by any GOP that happens to be in the area"

Shouldn't the road go towards Mecca, have a thousand street signs providing even basic information, be a toll road, and force all the cars to constantly monitor tire pressure?

Socialiests don't like em them private highways.

Don't worry conservatives. You'll get your chance to vote for a black guy for president next year.

/Obama is half black.
//Cain is full black.
///Derp.
////look! A shiny thing------>

Alphax: Somacandra: I voted for Obama, but that was a seriously funny headline. Sense of humor folks. Sense of humor.

/not Subby

I'm not getting the funny.

The only way the headline would've been funny is if it read "all signs say 'yield all to right-turning traffic.'"

Good god, we're getting Kopechne posts in things tangentially related to driving now?

Let her be dead in peace instead of trotting out the corpse to win an internet argument 40 years later at 2:30 on a Thursday morning.

Christ. It's like people have a hard-on for bringing it up because they know they can shame the liberals with their ace in the hole.

log_jammin: Parkway? PARKway? but you DRIVE on it right??

And yet you park on a DRIVEway.

/What's up with that? Amiright?

Yeah, that's not bad.

This one's more like "Brad Pit is an ugly virgin." (laughtrack)

You should have gone with a crying eagle, or a flag to distract them.

There is nothing wingnuts like more than tying that poor woman's waterlogged corpse to a stick and waving it around like a banner.

Alphax: Yeah, that's not bad.

This one's more like "Brad Pit is an ugly virgin." (laughtrack)

The only thing I get about this one is the 4 trillion cost. I get it. But it's not funny.

Mike_LowELL: BAHAHAHAHAHA BEST HEADLINE IN FARK HISTORY

GIVE THIS MAN THE TEN-THOUSAND DOLLARS

OBAMA

HIS HORRIBLE PRESIDENCY

IT WORKS ON SO MANY LEVELS

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

THIS CLOWN IS GONNA GET DESTROYED IN 2012

PRESIDENT CAIN INCOMING

GG LIBS



Don't blame me, I voted for Raziel

randomjsa: PacManDreaming: Sure beats driving down Dick Cheney Lane

I'd rather go hunting with Cheney than driving with Kennedy.

You know, going hunting drunk in 2006, shooting one of your elderly friends in the head with a shotgun, going back to the ranch to down more martinis, refusing to let investigating officers talk to you until you sober up, and getting the guy you shot to apologize on your behalf, and having an entire right-wing media machine cover your tracks vs doing something regrettable and unfortunate forty farkin' years ago and then dying and still getting used as an excuse for right-wing fark-ups.

Are you sure you wanted to go there?

randomjsa: You know, making a mistake, owning up to it, and being thankful it wasn't a lot worse than it was vs driving drunk, ending up in a river, leaving a woman to drown, all to cover your own rear, and end up beloved by the left in spite of all of that.

Dude, Cheney blamed the Lawyer he shot in the face.

FTFA: "Dyer said 150 jobs were created in Phase I of construction, which cost $10.5 million. The city will hire 150 more workers when Phase II begins, he said."

With a cut of the ribbon by Mayor Buddy Dyer and Orlando city commissioners, the new 1.5 miles of roadway was opened and provides an alternate route to Interstate 4, John Young Parkway and Kirkman Road.

The Eastern Extension phase of the President George Bush Turnpike (PGBT) will extend the highway 9.9 miles (15.9 km) southeast to Interstate 30 through the cities of Sachse and Rowlett, meeting I-30 in extreme southeast Garland.(This was added to the definition of SH 190 in 2006.) The NTTA received environmental clearance in 2005 and construction began in October 2008, with completion scheduled for Q4 2011. The project will include a 1-mile (1.5 km) bridge spanning Lake Ray Hubbard. Costs estimates are anticipated to be $1.04 billion.

Am I missing something here? Is a bridge that expensive?

For a one-mile long span? Yeah, definitely. You're either building a pontoon bridge, which has some very special engineering challenges, or sinking a fark of a lot of pylons. When you see that they're building it across a reservoir, and so they have to take care of the water quality more than normal while construction is underway...

No doubt Subby would have preferred "Mrs. Subby's Vagina-Way" in honor of all the truckers and tourists that'll be passing through.

Eh that makes sense. Just seems excessive to spend a billion dollars for 9 miles of road and 1 mile of bridge, but then again a billion only gets you like half a B2 anyway nowadays.

Here's a good comparison: The Hoover Dam was completed in 1935 at a cost of $49,000,000, which was considered a fair bargain. In 2011 dollars, that translates to a little over $800 million, and it took five years to build, rather than the three that this bridge is taking. Engineering projects like this cost bucks. We weren't always afraid of that...

But... but socialism. I was told there would be no socialism.

Let's see if we can make subby feel accepted

FTFA"Dyer said 150 jobs were created in Phase I of construction, which cost $10.5 million. The city will hire 150 more workers when Phase II begins, he said."

WRONG LOLZ. Wow talk about your libtard fails

GUBMINT CANT CREATE JOBS IS FACT. NOBAMA FAILS SO BAD HERE COMES 2012 AND HE'LL BE GONE THANK GOD HIS NATION DIVIDING BANKRUPTING WAYS AND FAILED POLICIES WILL END FOREVER. (it's a fact)

LOOKOUT ACORN YOU WONT STEAL THIS ONE HURRRRRRRRRdUUURRRr

Orlando would be one of the last places I'd expect to find a roadway named after a current Democratic president. Orange County, Florida being right there with Orange County in California or El Paso County, Colorado.

What's that? Take $1 trillion and 6000 living US soldiers and dumping it all in the desert?

Not enough unions or OWSers playing bongo drums.

swahnhennessy: Orlando would be one of the last places I'd expect to find a roadway named after a current Democratic president. Orange County, Florida being right there with Orange County in California or El Paso County, Colorado.

It's also not some place I would expect to find an off ramp that goes into the ocean.

Klippoklondike: If it runs in an endless loop, how does it have an exit?

IT DOESN"T MAKE SENSE!

An Obama project that's self-contradictory? How silly!

And next to it is GOP parkway that is paved with poor people only the rich can ride and makes you constantly turn to the hard right

Somacandra: I voted for Obama, but that was a seriously funny headline. Sense of humor folks. Sense of humor.

/not Subby

Eh, it had potential but wasn't used the best way. Maybe something like 'it constantly turns right' or something.

Ah yes. It banks ever so slightly to the right, but has "left turn ahead" signs every 50 feet. There's a constant effort to defund maintenance for it, which is rumored to cost $200 million every day. And it may have as many surveillance cameras as the road you were on before, but at least the ride isn't torturous.

/I heard the Ron Paul expressway is paved with gold

Peter von Nostrand: I'm guessing that subby's sandy vagina supplied the median and probably had some left to spare

You Obamabots are positively farking embarrassing.

It's a farking joke, Britney. Loosen up your pantyhose.
