Like the Big Dig......Just A Whoooole Lot Bigger

So Barack Obama has apparently taken this FDR talk seriously enough to reveal his "21st Century New Deal", and suddenly I'm reminded of that quote...
...how does it go?...
...a "second class mind but a first class temperament"

“[W]e will launch a massive effort to make public buildings more energy-efficient. Our government now pays the highest energy bill in the world. We need to change that. We need to upgrade our federal buildings by replacing old heating systems and installing efficient light bulbs. That won’t just save you, the American taxpayer, billions of dollars each year. It will put people back to work.”

OK, OK I know it was TR not FDR but lets not ruin a good meme...
