Herrera sells us out.

As I have been saying repeatedly and all along, Jaime Herrera wants the I-5 bridge replaced; she wants light rail, and she wants to screw us with tolls for the rest of HER life.

All that garbage a few months back when the gutless wonder was getting her ass kicked in by Leavitt?

As I said at the time, it was all for show.  She wants to make us THINK she's fighting for us... that she cares... when all she cares about is herself.

And now, she's selling us out... not even a vote requirement for her 30 pieces of silver.

And I, for one, am sick of it.

The first-term Republican representative from Camas pointed out that, under the compromise bill, $500 million would be reauthorized for a grant program that could help finance the Columbia River Crossing project. The previous transportation bill had only allowed $356 million for the grant program, which doles out money based on a project's national and regional significance.


"From day one, I have said that the federal government must be prepared to pay its fair share of replacing the (Interstate 5) bridge," she said.

Hey, Herrera... here's a clue, you simple idiot: The fed's share for this fiasco is ALL of it.

God save us from cowards and sellouts in Congress.
