Sally...you're such a dweeb that you can't even make a point which is a good one correctly. The point that the ESB was built remarkably fast is a good point when measured against current construction time for virtually anything. However it was not built in 8 months. Start to finish was 1 year and 45 days or 13.5 months.

Sally is a know-it-all idiot. A guy who is transforming to a female with a penis. Many of "his" aliases are female names (Polly, Barbie, etc). He is half-way out of the closet.

It is certainly a reasonable question to ask that after the Sunshine Skyway Disaster (which is relevant unlike the I-35 collapse which is not) why were all major bridges that span port access not retrofitted with "massive dolphins" if the piers were in the water. Most other East Coast ports do not have this narrow an entry (Savannah has piers on land, Philadelphia's narrowest bridge on the approach has a center span 400 longer, both Norfolk and Charleston don't have any bridges at all on approach). In the grand scheme of costs and how much the Federal budget is, this would be pretty small amount of money.
Definitely a question which needs to be addressed. As is typical, commentary is to the extreme in terms of the number of bridges this could happen to even if, for various reasons some listed above, it is unlikely to happen. How about addressing the most vulnerable and work back.

Republicans are against spending money on infrastructure. They want private companies to rebuild that public bridge. Expect to pay $10 to cross it each way if Rs have their way.

re: Kobbs Hessler

Authority to fix the bridge is 100% with the Democrats - Biden, Buttigieg, Governor Wes Moore of Maryland.

The clock is ticking and Americans are watching.
