Who knew Amtrak was so Exciting?

Instead of ‘Hip to be Marx’, how about hip to be ‘Thomas’ (the train, that is)?
Ever since Slow Joe’s daily train ride between Delaware and D.C. came out in the national spotlight, it seems excitement on the fledgling, 100% government-owned train company is at an all time high!
First Greta Van Susteren saves some one’s life on the train …
Then Glen Beck has a kerfuffle with the ladies on The View after lying about their meeting on a train and mocking Barbara WaWa.
Finally, Amtrak is getting $1.3 billion in Porkulus bacon to steam ahead with expansion even though it’s a proven money loser. If the company’s track record of unsuccess is any indication of how the government operates businesses, lets hope the feds pass on fully ‘Amtrak-ing’ the American auto industry. If not, get used to seeing government-built cars on the road and we all know how good they can be …
Fun with a Soviet-Built Volga!
On the bright side, they look like fun …

And it’s dirt cheap to ride the rails (thanks to our printing of more money to shovel into the bottomless pit of Amtrak).
