Another Dumb Remark by the Bush Adm.
The Bush Adm. has made some ridiculous remarks over the years, like Cheney saying that the Iraquis will greet us with flowers when we liberate them, Bush’s “mission accomplished,” and his most recent remark that we have 36 allied countries fighting in Iraq. Just when you think they would run out of dumb remarks, Secretary of Transportation Mary Peters comes to the plate and hits one out of the park. You won’t believe who she feels is to blame for the tragic collapse of the bridge in Minnesota? How about the nation’s bicyclists and pedestrians. Peters feels that they, plus museum goers and historical preservationists hog to much of the gas tax money that should be used to repair bridges. Someone should tell Peters that only 1.5% of transportation dollars go to bike and walk paths while 10% of trips to work, school and store are made by walking or bicycling.
