So all the new Governors immediately axed all high speed rail programs.... but Obama thought it would be a good idea to promote... what a maroon.

High Speed Rail Goes Loco

California’s high speed rail project could be shaping up as the awesomest catastrogeddon of 2011.
The California High Speed Rail Authority is committed to breaking ground on a leg of the train that will serve passengers between the unincorporated town of Borden and the half-incarcerated town of Corcoran.
Whether you call it the train from nowhere or the train to nowhere, nobody will be riding it even when it’s done. That’s not libertarian cant: The actual plan for the $4.15 billion leg is that upon completion it will sit idle until other sections of track are completed.
Nobody likes this plan.
