Wingnuts Wanted More Socialist Trains

The sheer audacity of their moronic self-contradiction is hilarious. Wingnut tea baggers are griping about why more of them couldn't ride the DC Metrorail -- a government-run and therefore "socialist" mass transit system.

And the Republican congressman who's making the biggest stink about it actually voted against $150 million in funding to improve the Metro. Seriously.

One of the many reasons why I can't wait for the public option is because I'm dying to see how many Republicans sign up. My hunch is that out of everyone using the public option, 45-50 percent will be self-described conservatives and/or registered Republicans.
