| 75. I fully support the President on this also |
|
Edited on Thu Apr-16-09 03:46 PM by leftstreet
snip The White House said funding will move into the rail system through three channels, first to upgrade projects already approved and only in need of funding, thus providing jobs in the short term. The second and third channels would focus on high-speed rail planning and then a commitment to help in the execution of those plans far into the future when the stimulus funds are no longer available. An investment in public transportation is long overdue, and this is an excellent way to start.  K&R |

So how do you describe this statement |
HamdenRice | Apr-16-09 01:49 PM | #22 |

You can say "that is not true", but you cannot accuse someone else of lying |
