Obama Nominates Former MBTA Head Beverly Scott To NTSB
You have to be effing kidding me..... This is the reward for leading the MBTA down the toilet? Obama continues to prove he is the worst decision maker the country has elected in my lifetime. This is small potatoes compared to his screw ups in the big picture, but locally, it certainly proves the point that he is unethical and unqualified for the office

If you expected anything different you're the crazy ones these days. One failure in office putting yet another failure in office. This is what "the people" voted for.

I am no longer an Obama supporter. Not because of this but of so many other things. hope? change? The change he has brought isn't what I was expecting.

Really, exactly what would you expect from a "zero-experience" president??
I had been hoping he would prove himself worthy, only he proved he's worthy alright!....worthy of being ridden out of town, hell...out of the COUNTRY on a rail!!!
He make Ford, Carter and Bush, Jr. all look like an Einstein by comparison.

You don't think some groups are just itching to start naming public buildings after the first black US President?
She does have an impressive resume. One challenge I think with issues like this is that the best candidates might not have a perfect past, but they do have the right experience. You see it all the time in business. How many CEO's have run failing companies at one time or another? |

Ironic that you would choose those formers for comparison,they were all politicians. This country was never as happy and united as when an actor was our leader. Patriotism was at an all time high,now we have the greatest divide I remember.

Similar to the Brockton school superintendent getting "fired" then hired by Deval as MA Sec of Education  |

America. The land where all is given to those who make bad decisions and those who are responsible have to pay for them.

I just fell out of my chair welcome to the formerly silent majority who are tired of seeing Abuses of taxpayer dollars based on being PC.
As far as Scott goes. This job is a gift. She failed miserably while increasing expenditures at the MB TA. She doubled the number of jobs over 100,000 she spent tons of money on travel "for the job". Her job in Atlanta? No real verdict on that one she did consolidate spending there but who leaves a job that is close to 350,000 in a temperate climate to move to Boston for a significant pay cut? She said she would not be seeking a new contract with MARTA but maybe that was a deal to unload her

For an artist, Nebe is really starting to show signs of reality.
Meanwhile, I suggest Jeff keep the paddles nearby as his pulse could be in jeapordy.
Good Luck to both kindred spirits.

How so?
And by the way, they are both doing it as the nation spends a TRILLION dollars more per year than it takes in. That will strip your kid and my kids future faster than any rich rich. |

Kind of odd that Ted Cruz just led the charge on not funding the import/export bank(evil corporate welfare) . Those most highly opposed were the left. Why is it Bilary has accepted more donations from Big business and Wall Street than any other candidate.

One way is by tax cuts to the rich, incredibly lax corporate tax rules and putting the heft of taxes on the middle class. Isn't that the GOP's mandate?
