So it takes a former SNL comedian turned MN Senator to defend the Lewis & Clark project?

What a joke, ironically;

TEA, SD – Construction of the Lewis and Clark Regional Water System is just past the halfway point but federal funding problems are prohibiting any upcoming progress.

Minnesota Senator Al Franken toured the Tea project Saturday to gain better insight before taking his concerns to Washington.

I would agree, what a great infrastructure project, that should be paid for by the Feds, except, Sioux Falls already decided to bail out the feds on this project to the tune of $80 million for a pipeline we will hardly ever use and we will not be able to watch reunion Cher concerts at. What is more troubling is that it takes a Minnesota Senator to bring this to awareness.

    And just where was/is Thune or Noem? As I recall Thune wasn’t much help in getting the project started to begin with, it was Daschle who came to the rescue of Thune to get this project going.
    Nice that Al Franken came to a SD to help.

    No shit, Huh? Obviously he was looking out for the small towns in Minnesota affected by the project, but how sad is it that a Minnesota Senator is the only one looking out for us? Where the f’ck is Johnson (who promised us all this money) Thune, Noem, Daugarrd, Huether?
