DEMON SPAWN OF THE STIMULUS
From an initial concept by H.P. Lovecraft:
SEE! $50 billion in new stimulus money for highways to be introduced on the Senate floor tomorrow!!!!
HEAR! Nothing for transit!!!!!
SMELL! (TASTE?) (FEEL?) Alleged environmentalist Barbara Boxer (D-Marin County) writing a bill with climate denier James Inhofe (R-Olduvai Gorge) to build thousands of miles of roads and increase our dependence on fossil fuels!
THE STIMULUS THAT ATE THE ENVIRONMENTALISTS’ BRAINS!!!! A COSMIC HORROR SO BIZARRE IT COULD ONLY HAPPEN ON CAPITOL HILL!!!
Be afraid. Be very afraid. Be quite confused.

I’m a little concerned that we seem to have all agreed for some reason that what this country really needs right now is more highways. But–assuming that NEPA is still going to apply to the stimulus–I wonder how strong environmentalists should play their hand. It seems like it might be better politics to argue for alternatives now rather than waiting until it is too late to do anything other than to try to stop the highways.
