This is why I am supporting David Perdue for U.S. Senate! When he qualified at the state Capitol this morning, Senate candidate David Perdue dodged the issue of whether the earmark ban is too restrictive, saying instead that Washington fails to prioritize projects that could have the biggest economic impact. Said Perdue: ”It’s just one thing after another. And my frustration is the conversations we’ve had in Washington are drifting with it. There’s been no sense of urgency. We’re on third base, but it’s tough to get somebody home from third base.” He said lawmakers look at this type of project as a “one-off” rather than a strategic priority. “The money is there,” he said, before taking a swipe at Kingston. “It’s five feet. We’ve been digging that port since Oglethorpe. I just hold accountable the people who have been in office. It’s not just the Democrats, it’s not just the president. It’s the Republicans too.” politics.blog.ajc/2014/03/05/port-of-savannah-snub-complicates-debuts-of-jason-carter-michelle-nunn/
