Brian Kelly, California transportation official is a liar

LA Times: Transportation officials have selected 14 public transit projects across California for a slice of proceeds from the state's auction of greenhouse gas pollution credits, almost $391 million in spending between now and the summer of 2018.
"Every dollar we invest has to have a greenhouse gas benefit," said Brian Kelly, secretary of the California Transportation Agency.

I highlighted the lie.  The energy efficiency of current California mass transit systems is way below the typical automobile efficiency, end to end.  Brian knows he is lying, he is reradibng off the environmental checklist which says, 'Always pretend mass transit is energy efficient'  Brian's problem is that he is an idiot, he does not yet know he is required to lie; he thinks he is just repeating the standard line.
