(CNSNews.com) -- The government spent at least $205,075 in 2010 to “translocate” a single bush in San Francisco that stood in the path of a $1.045 billion highway-renovation project that was partially funded by the economic stimulus legislation President Barack Obama signed in 2009.

The bush—a Franciscan manzanita—was a specimen of a commercially cultivated species of shrub that can be purchased from nurseries for as little as $15.98 per plant. The particular plant in question, however, was discovered in the midst of the City of San Francisco

maybe after the $7000 plus money to be spent on genetic testing shows it to be a common run of the mill garden center bush,, the liberals will test it first before spending hundreds of thousands to move it first?

stupid liberals...



The plant is now protected by a fence and its location is kept secret, in part because the Presidio Trust and the National Park Service fear that nature-lovers seeking to see the rare wild Manzanita might trample it to death.

Did you say shovel-ready?

The Jobs/Stimulus bill is not even 6 months into what is a 2 year plan...Many of the local jobs just started because of weather- others are held up because the factories can't get geared up fast enough to make the steel needed....
You don't just go from a country on the brink of oblivion (where Bush had taken us) to a full blown booming economy overnight.....
Talk to me about it 2 years down the line...

Oh, but if they didn't spend the money alloted for moving that bush,
the next time a bush needed moved, there would be less money to
do it. :? :roll:
