Oh yeah. That's it.

This morning, on NPR, the subject of high-speed rail came up. The story included a quote from someone in the Transportation Department (the Secretary himself? No idea.). He said, "President Obama wants to be the High-Speed Rail President."

Sure.

Sure he does.

Because when you're the first African-American president, what you yearn for, in the dark of the night, is to be known as The High-Speed Rail President.

Phhhbbt.

Totally! And on the list of Things He Is, I'd put that about...200 places ahead of being the High-Speed Rail President.

Honestly, it just made me shake my head.
