Hellooo....we're BROKE. Besides nothiing EVER comes in as projected related to cost. Maybe at a later date, for now pull back the stimulus money for this and direct it toward the deficit or the debt, that is if they still have it lying around.

Smoke more of of those weeds yer producing Cali- it will increase your delusions of granduer- it will then be one big magic carpet ride to the future. Avoiding the reality of it all as one huge money sucking belly flop of a program payed for by taxpayers that it really is.

Well the scary part of it is that President Babboon is pushing this and expecting the rest of the troupe to fall in line. It's being pushed as an economic stimulus, a job creator, and a boon to the country to provide mass-transit without private vehicles.

snap to visual: Leo and Kate are on the sternmost part of A-deck, clinging to the rail 100 feet over the surface of the sinking ship which lies perpendicular to the surface of the North Atlantic... This is where we are folks, at the precipice; do we jump ship or pay for a train we don't need ? Did Leo need an anchor or a liferaft ?

Already California has received about $3.8 billion, mostly in stimulus money. But as the high-speed rail project that is furthest along, it stands to bring home the lion's share of any additional federal money.
And that is where the controversy comes in. The first leg of the project is slated for the middle of Central Valley -- not between major cities, or congested freeway corridors like San Francisco and San Jose or Orange County and Los Angeles. The Central Valley site is between Borden -- a point on the map where no one lives -- and Corcoran, a town where half the residents will never board a train because they're in prison.
Where's lem? Who's a leech, who's a parasite, who is wasting our tax money like there's no tomorrow? Guess he's still embarrassed.....anyone who supported bho should be embarrassed. He's an embarassment to the entire country.

California is the poster child for liberal policies and, of course, it is failing. Obama has to funnel as much cash to that state to prop it up, as much as possible.

hehehhe....I try.....I still cannot find a proper term for this barf bag which is not profane. I would like to defame the person without denigrating the Office of The President of the United States. Might not be possible...thanks to President Babboon, the dignity of that office is circling the toilet as we speak, thanks to libs and "I" voters...

But I will use this as it is the only positive feedback I've gotten despite the many different durogatory terms I've used for
this mook. When he's retired in 2012, and retires to private life, he will be known as "Citizen Babboon"
