More Blowback On the Ogden City Streetcar Situation

No more ineffective griping, pleeeze.
We'd like to point our readers to a good follow-up blog article article on the heels of yesterday's WCF story, in which we reported that the ever-visionary Boss Godfrey received a fairly cool reception at the WACOG meeting on Monday, regarding his possibly loopy "downtown Ogden [Diesel powered] Trolley loop, wherein the little shite warned the possibly "mostly non-visionary" WACOG representatives that he'd be putting the arm on them later, in the event that Godfrey's personal Washington lobbyist might score federal "economic stimulus money,as "Ogden City's, ie, "might get lucky with the Obama administration paid whore"

OK, Enough of your blogmeister's general griping. Here's link to a great blog article which we'd like to feature this afternoon:
Trolley Tussle Threatens Transoportation
Please read this article and then write these wise words down, Ogden People, just so you don't forget it:

Obviously, there has to be money in place to fund both projects. It appears, given the scarcity of resources available, that this debate may come down deciding which project is more important. If there is a way to make the Downtown Circulator work AND still build the WSU-Downtown line, then everyone wins. However, if it comes down to making the hard choice, it may be wiser to continue pressing forward with the WSU-Downtown line given the time and energy already spent on bringing it to fruition. It would be unfortunate to have recent efforts made to fund the Downtown Circulator sabotage of the promised WSU public transportati[o]n line. [sic]
That's it for now, gentle readers.

We couldn't have said it better ourself ourselves.

Time's now to launch your ever-wise WCF comments, people.

What ever you do... please don't let the cat get "yer' tongues
