“If you prefer to forfeit the money we are making available to your state, as Sen. Kyl suggests, please let me know,” wrote Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood. For good measure, he attached a three-page addendum listing each of the Arizona projects paid for by the $521 million the state is getting.

That's a hollow statement. We've already seen that there is little freedom to forfeit the money.

Banks
Car makers

I firmly believe he wants a strong America...as I do...but I don't think he has enough political experience to really know what is right and what is wrong...
I simple ask a single question...name one program the government has run that they did not royally screw up...and you want to gravitate towards a socialist state?
I am starting to really worry about this guy and his strong arm tactics.
