You sound like a pissy infant. It has been a year since the so called stimulus package and no talks of a railway at all. Not even talk. Obama has made many telivised speeches and not one time has he mentioned railway. I would think if it was going to happen Obama would be touting that project at every chance. Wow you found a map of what should be proposed railways. That shoul stimulate the economy.
So now your pissed? I won't be losing any sleep over it

I think you're missing my point homeslice. Let me spell it out a little nicer for you this time. Less snark.
1) High Speed Rail is important to you? Right?
2) There is 8 Billion dollars worth of High Speed Rail being planned/engineered/built in America right now, as we speak. It's happening, this isn't an opinion, it's a fact.
3) If it's important to you, why wait for the President to talk about it on TV, (BTW he's mentioned it several times in his weekly addresses, at the introduction of the new jobs bill and when he signed the stimulus into law. He also talked about it in his first state of the Union speech)?
4) If it's important to you, why don't you look at the US Department of Transportations website and read up on the status of all of the ongoing projects?
It's happening dude, just because the President himself hasn't walked over to your house and told you, doesn't mean it's not. These are the facts. Plain and simple. Is that clear enough?
The reason he's not touting the projects at every opportunity are because Republicans during the stimulus debate were attacking him for spending money on HSR, saying that Obama was funneling money to states which he carried in the election and to states with Democratic senators. Now he's too busy trying to convince Americans that he's not a Muslim and he was born in Hawaii.
