Oh man, I forgot about the 'invasion'. See, most of us are more worried about like, football and baseball games rather that the Repubs, and how everything is going to be -fucked- and have to go to other bridges, which get just as busy during that time of the day, and are going to be hell, now.
Im personally leaning to blaming Pawlenty, the republican suckass governor we have, who's screwed the state budget in so many ways (they wanted to cut funding for fucking snowplows...we then proceeded to get nearly three feet of snow in three days as nature going 'I dont -think- so') and cut funding for road repair (potholes everywhere) and the state going 'Oh we dont have to do anything about that major bridge yet because it says it can get away with a few more years, we'll just resurface it and make it look pretty!'. It'll be interesting to see who gets the blame. It's an interstate bridge, so not strictly under the cities control, so they cant shuffle it off there.
bleh, just lucky there were as few deaths as there were. And Im impressed, it took CNN about an hour and a half to finally get around to mentioning that there was no sign of it being a terrorist act. --
