FRESNO, Calif. (AP) -- Federal authorities say California's $68 billion higher-speed rail could harm the protected kit fox.

Gotta love it when two liberal interests are at odds.

Rockets or not, I’ll take one over a train any day of the year!

Redd Foxx was off the hook funny!!!

While this might have stopped another, lesser project, I can't see anything getting between Diane Feinstein and her money.

...California's $68 billion higher-speed rail ...

I love this, this is like "global warming" turning into "climate change." Higher-speed rail doesn't actually have to go high speed, it just has to go higher than the really slow trains today.

“Another alternative would be to build more reservoirs”

If it doesn’t rain and snow there will be no water to put in the new resevoirs. We need “new” water sources for the coastal population centers. Let the existing resevoirs handle flood control, recharging the acquifers and agriculture. Stop sending the Owens River to Los Angeles.

Awwww they are so adorable. Who would think these adorable foxes could stop moonbeam and his choo choo train to nowhere. Liberals doing what they do best - they don’t practice what they preach.

Liberals...is there anything they can't screw up?

That's like asking is there are any scavenger animals that don't want dying and rotted food. It's what they eat.

Likewise, liberals feed on wrecking things - building things properly takes energy, and then what would they eat?

They’ll get a federal pas just like the wind generators get for killing all those raptors.

Dump this screw ball rail idea before it's too late and use the $100BILLION to build a pipeline from one of the rivers up north that dumps millions of gallons of fresh water into the Pacific every day.

They found a way to ignore the consequences of their bird-killing wind turbines. They’ll find a way to sacrifice the Kit Fox to the envirogod.

They’ll find a way to sacrifice the Kit Fox to the envirogod.

I think this is how they bail while saving face.

This fox might just bite Brown and his fawning democrats in their collective asses.

[boop]

I noticed that too.

"Higher-speed" trains?

No more high-speed, or bullet trains I guess.

By the time this is over it'll be just a train.

And anyone who objects to it will be a train-denier.

Nothing like lowering the bar so much you trip over it.

These eco-pukes don’t know what they’re messing with. They could end up like the Mena, Arkansas boys.
