Thank you President Obama for our Dredge Cash!

The big "Ear Mark" Stimulus bill recently passed by
President Obama...has finally hit Orange County. As
you might have assessed...the dredger is busy in the
Back Bay right now. Those familiar slamming metal
sounds are echoing across from Fletcher Jones Mercedes
into the houses in the Bluff's and East Bluff Drive.

Thank you President Obama. We just got $2.87 Million
Back Bay Bucks...to continue a project that is still
underfunded by about $13 Million Dollars. As we all
know Congressman John Campbell is recovering from a
surgery and won't be back to D.C. until sometime in
April, so his pals Dana Rohrabacher, Ed Royce and some
others have stepped up to assist the Congressman get
the cash....we need for the Dredging of Newport Bay.

The $410 Billion dollar Omnibus Stimulus Bill offered
9000 Special Project Earmarks. However, those 9000
Ear Marks...only account for about 1% of the $410B
offered up. Hey, Vanguard University, one of John
Moorlach's favorites....even got $447,000 for some new
science testing equipment (if they can document the
purchases). All according to the report in the Daily
Plot today!

All in all, it still amazes us that with literally
Billions and Billions going to virtually everyone and
everything but the kitchen sink....Newport Beach is
still short $13 Million Back Bay Bucks! Maybe, Chris
Cox and his family will come back to our beloved Newport
Beach...and maybe Chris ...can help us get the last $13
Million before somebody else gets it!
