Can't someone do something? Do we have to wait for all the bridges to fall in the river?? Did anyone try to just burning the d*m thing down in place? and what's the Status of the Benwood Bridge and did anyone thank Bridgeport Ohio for taking out the replaced lower Island access bridge, a Thank-you card would be in order for doing something Wheeling,WV couldn’t, wouldn’t do for 30 years. We know you were busy removing the chain-link fence rust stains to the Federal Highways entrance to the Tunnel, "GoodJob ,over many, many years of service to the community, there’s not a job small enough or not within your direct control that can’t be overlooked or allowed to deteriorate"

Due to the fact that small tour busses, limos, and heavy SUVs routinely cross the bridge, the "weight restriction" and 50ft spacing just isn't working

Time to allow only ONE vehicle at a time to cross or completely eliminate motor vehicle traffic

Think of this bridge as our U.S. economy.

How many cables would then be broken?

Would the people just ignore the danger or keep traveling over it?

In truth, Obama is leading the entire nation across a dangerous bridge. A bridge with no moral foundaton.

You've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya?

The latest word from Charleston is that because the bridge has not been a good "return on investment" it is "time for it to come down."

Sad, but the Great State of West Virginia is all about "cutting edge business."

Senator Manchin has introduced a bill to to award MBA's to all citizens making over $400,000 per year.

We can only hope that this important bill passes.
