Obama Likes and Republicans Dislike
Shorter Politico: Obama likes trains (high-speed rail specifically), Republicans don't like anything.
It's actually a good read, and all Chicagoans will appreciate the lead:
Railroads made Chicago, and now a Chicago-rich White House wants to return the favor: remaking rail with a huge new federal investment in high-speed passenger trains.
Good Luck / February 17, 2009 1:04 PM
I'm a Chicagoan and I appreciate the lack of public (or private) debate that preceded the spending bill and massive increase in the national debt.
Hope.
Change.
