NorthJersey.com: Biden gaffe: New rail tunnel being built for cars?

NorthJersey.com: Biden gaffe: New rail tunnel being built for cars?: "“Look, this is designed, this totally new tunnel, is designed to provide for automobile traffic,” Biden said. “It’s something, as you know, up your way, that’s been in the works and people have been clamoring for for a long time.”

For the record, the tunnel is for trains, and its completion would allow for more NJ Transit trains during peak hours and “one-seat” rides into Midtown Manhattan on lines serving Bergen and Passaic counties. Currently riders on those lines must switch trains.

Biden's office did not immediately respond to a request to clarify his comments."

Why should his office respond? The national press will bury this, the way they buried the rest of his gaffes.

How true. Biden's gaffes get far too little airing. Visionary folk singer Barncat Jones recorded a song about "Biden Buffoonery" here.
