Former White House Chief of Staff and currently mayor of Chicago, Rahm Emanuel, whose city is rushing to be the next Detroit after decades of big government excesses, once said that a crisis was a terrible thing to waste since it allows you to get things done you couldn’t get done in a saner atmosphere. The Amtrak derailment outside Philadelphia is the latest case in point.
Never mind that the Antrak train that crashed outside Philadelphia, killing seven, was being driven at 106 miles per hour around a curve that was designed for 50 or that the “positive train control” system (PTC) that would have overridden the operator to brake the train was in the pipeline to be installed. According to Democrats who believe money solves everything and that the serpent in the Garden of Eden was probably a Republican, it’s the fault of the Republicans.

AMTRAK VS. OIL TRAINS PING
Chris Mathews said that the GOP treats trains like they treat Hispanics. Something along the lines of ignoring and not spending enough on both trains and Hispanics . not sure where he comes up with such comparisons.
Amtreak?
I get the impression that all the MSM are looking for and trying to set up an out for this newbie engineer that looks like a kid and we all know kids think texting misshaps won’t slam them!!
AMTRAK VS. OIL TRAINS PING
So, why isn’t Matthews accused of “racism” for equating Hispanics with a hopeless loser like Amtrak?
AMTRAK VS. OIL TRAINS PING
Cause he’s a leftard. Only whites can be racist and only if they’re conservative or otherwise in disfavor.

So, lets “spend” more on Hispanics by giving the illegal ones surplus guns the government doesn’t want Americans to have; then, put them on trains back to where they came from to take care of their problems at home.
I think they know that there were no mechanical problems, no weather issues, no projectiles able to force a huge train to speed up, and no terrorists at the controls....
I think they know that the little train engineer was at fault...period...
granted, he could have been mixed up, lost track of the time, maybe he fell asleep....I don't think this was intentional...
or, he might have been on and off the phone....we'll see....I wonder if he had porn with him....
Thanks raptor22.
I think the kid was texting another peter puffer or looking a gay porn and they DO NOT want a queer responsible for all these deaths
