      <![CDATA[If the morons in KC Mo want to waste their tax dollars on this boondoggle I really don't care....just another in a long series of screws up by the folks. But to use Federal tax dollars in a time of extreme budget cuts on something so unnecessary that only impacts a small segment of the KC population is criminal.

      <![CDATA[This is nothing but a PR campaign by Sleight of Hand James to divert attention from his failed police chief and the rising murder rate (mostly on the east side) his failure to address infrastructure issues, fix the school system or anything else he was elected to do. His only claim to fame has been he's not Funkhouser, oh and that he's black so KC can't be racist in electing him......sounds like the failed Oblame-Ya adminstration on a local scale.

      <![CDATA[Yea, who needs federal money when KC can just throw money down a rat hole for an ill-conceived light rail project that will be more like a kiddie ride at Worlds of Fun. Without a real plan that actually goes somewhere who are we kidding?

      <![CDATA[Is this going to be the street car of yesteryear, with all thoat wiring overhead that looks like spaghetti in the sky?<br>
<br>
The third rail method is too lethal a hazzard for pedestrians, so I'm sure thats out.<br>
<br>
Does anyone know, or is it mentioned in the proposal?<br>
There is a proposal, right?
