Not just Crumbling_pavement, Crumbling Capitol...

What in the hell are you talking about??? Slavery has been illegal in the District of Columbia for 147 years. Do you suppose the general contractor found a loophole?

Oops, My mistake. I was referring to the Capital and the White House, sorry.

I know what Detroitej72 was trying to say.

Do you?

I think you are confusing me with other neo-cons!,



Sorry, GP, I misread a thread.

I apoligise... As a fellow Catholic, do you accept my apology?

Patrick--in your professional opinion, what *should* the Visitor Center have cost? On what assumptions do you base your cost estimate?

Thanks for the laughs, gentlemen. Once again, you reveal yourselves to be blindly ideological ranting ill-informed idiots, with not a shred of relevance or fact in anything you write.

I want to apologize for these comments. I got hot under the collar for no reason at all. Forgive me, and my Polish temperament.

I think Detroitej72 was referring to the original construction of the Capitol Building, which did in fact make use of slave labor. The Visitors Center under discussion is a [[mostly) underground addition to the east face of the Capitol, across the street from the Supreme Court, and it has gone well over its initial budget and construction schedule for a myriad of reasons.
