Ray Lahood threatens nation with private enterprise!

A House committee hearing Thursday at which Republicans vowed to use their majority to block new federal funding for California’s bullet-train train wreck produced this astounding passage in The Washington Post: “We’re not giving up on high-speed rail,” Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood testified before a congressional committee. “The president will include funding in his budget. I think we’ll get there with public money, but in the absence of that we’ll get there with private money.” Chris Reed spots this doozy

Good grief, Ray, read your own friggin press once in a while and you will discover just how stupid you are.
