It's all about our stupid energy policies folks. Many of the other issues would be resolved if we just had a good energy policy......

During the 1990s, on the West and East coasts, train travel had started to take root. Trains have never had the status here that they have in Europe but they were beginning to provided a reasonable alternative in those two areas of the country. However, Bush has changed all that. Systematically, the GOP has been cutting back on Amtrak's budget and its starting to show badly. The equipment has really deteriorated over the past two years. The employees are still great but it has to be embarrassing for them that so many of the small defects in the equipment go unrepaired.

A comprehensive energy policy is made up of many parts. One by one, the Bush/GOP regime has cut back on each of those parts. These cuts are so incidious it amazes me how cow like the American public remains when it comes to this president.
