Open Thread 3/10

by Carl Ballard — Monday, 3/10/14, 6:54 am

– I’m pretty excited about what’s happening on Pike/Pine

– Solid headline.

– Rasmussen says he thinks WSDOT has been “keeping things very close to the vest,” in part because of a lack of information from the tunnel contractor, Seattle Tunnel Partners. And he says it seems increasingly unlikely that the tunnel will open by its 2016 target date.

– I had never thought of bossy as a problem before.

    Bridge = “I told you so” dance.
    I wished there was a way to punish, actually punish, the fools who forced this on us, so the next people would think twice before doing it again.
    Christine Gregoire?
    WSDOT?
    Who?
    And what would be a good punishment?
    Personal Bankruptcy? Years of jail time?

    “And he says it seems increasingly unlikely that the tunnel will open by its 2016 target date.”

    Least surprising “news” of the day. I would have bet the farm on this outcome if there had been odds in Vegas any time in the past couple years.

    Also, you could append “… if ever” to the end of that quote and it would be more accurate.

    Ahhh yes CBS News libtard bias…

    Attkisson, who has been with CBS News for two decades, had grown frustrated with what she saw as the network’s liberal bias, an outsize influence by the network’s corporate partners and a lack of dedication to investigative reporting, several sources said. She increasingly felt that her work was no longer supported and that it was a struggle to get her reporting on air.

    Wow… No wonder the libtard nightly news media isn’t trumpeting these CNN findings…

    Most Americans have never favored using public funds for abortions for women who cannot afford them. According to the survey, 56% remain opposed, with only 39% favoring public funding for abortions.

    But Attkisson had become a polarizing figure at the network, sources there said. While some championed her relentless dedication to investigations — ranging from defective Firestone tires to the Fast and Furious gun-walking scandal — others saw evidence of a political agenda, particularly against President Barack Obama. (The bulk of Attkisson’s work since 2009 has focused on the failures or perceived failures of the Obama administration, including its failed green-energy investments and the attack in Benghazi

    Well with an agenda like that it’s only obvious where she was trying to land..

    though she has reported on several Republican failures as well.

    Nowhere.. Damn. Missed the opportunity of a lifetime to sidekick on Sean the Idiot’s show or Fakes and Freaks.

    The American Public Transportation Association reported Public Transportation ridership last year was the highest it has been since 1956. Some of the biggest gainers were Los Angeles and Seattle. Portland did see a drop.
