Not "The Highway Bill"

I know I've said this before, but it shows where the priorities are for people in the press. They still talk about the 'Highway' bill like that was the only thing the transportation bill funded.
As soon as the stimulus bill is completed, Mica said, the committee is “ready to launch a full effort” to get a highway bill done both on time and with significantly higher investments.
We have a lot of work to do. And...OMG BBQ ponies!

Most of the journalists I know think their asses are too good to sit on anything other than their own automobile seats.

And, having worked for a number of newspapers and magazines over the years, I think the intellectual capacity of journalists has decreased over time.

Picking up from previous threads on what is to be done to change hearts and minds in Washington (not necessarily journalism), how about if everyone in the transit blogosphere gives money to the transit lobby? If opposing transit means significantly reducing chances for reelection... you know what they say, money talks...
