Biden Mistaken That Cars Could Use Rail Tunnel


biden.jpgVice President Joe Biden is off track about the nation’s largest transportation project.

When questioned by The Record of Bergen County about the Hudson River rail tunnel during a conference call on Monday, Biden said the new tunnel is “designed to provide for automobile traffic.”

However, the tunnel will only handle commuter trains that shuttle passengers between New Jersey and Midtown Manhattan.

Biden’s office did not immediately respond to a request to clarify his comment.

Officials broke ground on the $8.7 billion project on Monday. When finised in 2017, the two rail lines in the new tube will increase the number of NJ Transit trains passing under the river during peak rush hour from 23 to 48.

  1. He really is an idiot! Why on earth did Obama pick him? There is another motive why he is the VP, mark my words

  2. “He really is an idiot! Why on earth did Obama pick him? There is another motive why he is the VP, mark my words”

    He’s the anti-Dan Quayle. 🙂

  3. The media is having a field day with poking fun at Biden. I have heard direct quotes and then the media take on what he said, often misrepresenting him. In fact, the media is more in the lampooning business instead of the straight news as in days of old. In this scenario, the entire quote is not phrased to mean what they think he meant. “Designed to provide for automobile traffic?” Maybe he meant to say “Designed to provide for less automobile traffic”. Either way, you can cherry pick anyone to make them sound ridiculous.

  4. #1, Biden is there to make Obama look like a genius. And Cheney was there to make Bush look like a nice guy. Of course, no president picks a running mate that would be complimentary to themselves. That would almost be as bad as a Rosh Yeshiva picking a good mashgiach!

  5. #1 no reason to do name calling. But I agree with you that obama had another motive. He felt if he picks a vp that people don’t respect he will use him as a lame duck and not listen to a word he says

  6. Reason biden, people are laughing at him instead of seeing Obama is destroying the USA and making him a dictator. America is now a facist country. He has taken over the banks, throw out the president of GM, throw out the stock holders of Chrysler,trying to tax anybody who works more and more and going to take over health insurance. He hired a 31 no experience president of GM, who know nothing about running a car manufacture and the world is laughing at Biden. It isn’t funny
    It is also a garantee nobody serious would try to take him out and leave biden in charge

  7. veryinteresting,

    you have a vivid imagination and I dont want what you are inhaling! the drive by media is so in love – TOTALLY IN LOVE – with Obama its sickening and they have lost all neutrality in reporting. They no longer report, they cheerlead.

  8. Biden is an example of what can happen when patients who need certain medications, such as Arocept, don’t receive it bacause of governmemt controlled health care rationing. Nebech. Nebech because this man is the president if anything happens to Obama. Nebech, nebech because Pilosy is next after Biden.

  9. #10, Mr. Levin. You dont have to be mean to disagree. We can disagree but we are still fellow jews and should not make PERSONAL derogatory comments. I know it’s easy to do and I try to stop myself, as well.

    You are right! The drive-by media is TOTALLY IN LOVE with Obama. In fact, I think true journalism is a thing of the past and formally extinct. The media should be considered nothing more than lampoon publications with so-called journalism school graduates who HAVE inhaled too much of something and approach their jobs with zero intergrity and only folly. Points of view that may have been mentioned off-the-cuff in newspaper offices for a chuckle, are now being printed as news. They are TOTALLY IN LOVE with themselves – the media, that is.

    They love Obama. With Biden they have a running joke about catching him misspeaking. But this is the least of it. Most important, the media enjoys showing sympathetic pictures of Palestinians and ignores dramatic presentations of what Isreali’s suffer. The press is abound with pictures of arab women crying with their arms raised to the sky, while the acts that initiated such retaliation are barely mentioned, let alone detailed or portrayed with empathy.

    The world has gone off it’s rocker. Moschiach must soon be on his way.
