Quote of the Day – 03.04.09

From Rep. Mary Bono Mack (R–Ca.), speaking to one of her aides after a visiting reporter suggested that the stimulus bill didn’t actually contain a provision for a maglev train from Los Angeles to Las Vegas:

“Get him the bill, it’s right there, show him.”

You will be unsurprised to learn that no such provision turned out to be in the bill.  Mack’s reaction went sadly unrecorded.  (Via Steve Benen.)
