Chron D.C. bureau: More olds you need to know
Sedosi Alhambra sounds a familiar refrain in response to today's "olds" from Bennett Roth of the Chronicle's lackluster D.C. bureau.
Alhambra does, however, call attention to this amusing paragraph in the Roth reporting:
Deriding the project as a "bridge to nowhere," critics charge that it is one the most egregious examples of "pork barrel" spending that members of Congress stuffed into the $286.4 billion highway bill, the same law funding the Metro's light rail/bus system in Houston.
A transportation bill laden with egregious pork-barrel spending that also funds METRO's light-rail boondoggle?
Do you think there's a connection?
