Lefty Wanks


Posted by Matski on October 18th, 2007

Or, what happens when people who think snarky=intelligent spend too much time in a room alone together, drunk. The Strangler urges a no vote for Rail:

Sound Transit/RTID Proposition No. 1

VOTE NO

The joint roads and transit ballot measure shackles expansion of Sound Transit’s popular light-rail system to a massive roads- expansion package that could never have passed on its own.

That’s it. I think I’m about to officially go apoplectic at the political culture in this town. MUCH better if we spend another 15 years sitting on our thumbs giving the hairy eyeball to our cro-magnon cousins across Lake Washington … riiiiiight.

EDIT

Goldy agrees:

I do respect some of the people who are against Roads and Transit. But to play the “useful idiot” for Kemper Freeman Jr. by killing our first chance in 40 years to create a regional mass transit system, that’s too much.

Dan, Brendan, and Co. — 25 years from now when your kids all leave town to live in a “real” city, you’ll be kicking yourself for this.
