What a weasel. Talk about the Train to Nowhere!

[Jim Robinson]

California has brown rot.

"I'm doing the best I can to keep this train running,"

Moonbeam wants to drive Choo-Choo.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

"I would like to be part of the group that gets America to think big again."

Oh, Jerry, please!!! High speed rail is a crony capitalist dream and a union boondoggle to boot. It isn't thinking big. Its more of the same taking from the taxpayers to give to your supporters for a project that no one really wants. Want to think big? Pay down your debt before California completely swirls down the toilet.

[Plutarch]

The ‘bullet’ train should be named after Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, because CA needs it like a hole in the head.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Moonbeam wants to drive Choo-Choo.

Yeah, right over the cliff

He a dingy harry are in cahoots on this.

[Bulwinkle]

It would be cheaper to pay Californians to drive to New Mexico to ride that loser.

“”Brown told The Fresno Bee’s editorial board, “I would like to be part of the group that gets America to think big again.” “”

A liberal Democrats idea of thinking big is how much money can he waste. Jerry wants to put NM Gov Richardson to shame who only spent $800 million on his losing train that is costing New Mexicans $60 million per year.

Maybe they can hire the genius who ran the solar project for LA Community College?

[Olog-hai]

Estimates for capital costs have already leaped to a colossal $100 million per mile. How high does he want them to go?—$222 million per mile, like Alexander Kummant’s 200-mph parallel railroad to the Northeast Corridor between Boston and Washington . . . ?

What a weasel. Talk about the Train to Nowhere!

Are there any reporters with the balls that will ask this low grade moron how much campaign money he is receiving from the high speed rail thugs?

[Dogbert41]

Gee, wonder if the Chinese will build this railroad? The more things change...

[SpaceBar]

The Democratic Democrat governor...

[YHAOS]

"Gov. Jerry Brown said this afternoon that California's embattled high-speed rail project should move forward, despite growing criticism about the project's management and cost."

That's where he wants the next $Trillion to go.
