What The?

Senate Democrats make up bridge propaganda -

http://blog.seattletimes.nwsource.co...e_exactly.html

Quote:
A day after the bridge collapsed in Minneapolis, Sen. Patty Murray joined other Senate Democrats to accuse the Bush administration of failing to maintain the country's bridges. And she had a dynamite anecdote:

"I have learned of a bridge where school buses have to stop and let all of the children out and pick them up on the other side because of weight restrictions."

The Hill reports that the anecdote was quickly repeated by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid:

"The children have to walk across the bridge!" he declared in outrage.
When asked specifically where the bridge was the propaganda stopped. There was no such bridge.
