A.Y. again publishes YouTube videos of the Las Vegas BRT in operation on the Vegas Strip. Also the Las Vegas Deuce double deck bus. Also a video of both operating on the Vegas Strip. The Vegas BRT runs on city streets in downtown Vegas and dedicated transitways in the suburbs. Enjoy the videos.

Fisette, Hynes, Tejada, and Zimmerman, and their corporate developer cronies, are scoundrels. This proves it.
Before anything else - Fire Barbara Donnellan and everyone else in the County Manager's Office who is conspiring to sell our libraries, community centers and playgrounds to finance Zimmy's streetcar and other pet projects and, second, get the Feds into this County investigating what these scoundrels have been doing with the money they've been stealing from us.

Amen, amen, and right on!
Yes, and time for Congress to hold hearings about the Columbia Pike transit mess.
I am sending the Washington Post article about the $1 million bus shelter rip-off (feds and state taxpayers are funding it and 23 more) to my Congressman - Eric Cantor.
The $treetcar is all about development and $$$$, not about transportation. Zimmy's pro-$treetcar neighbors want to sell their homes to developers for $2 million each and move to low-tax towns that are at least 100 miles from $mart Growth cities.
Per an Assistant County Manager at last night's streetcar meeting: As the result of the meeting held on March 20th about divesting the county of older and under-used county properties, Barbara Donnellan is forming a committee of top-level county employees to devise the means of packaging and selling the properties, e.g. Cherrydale library, Gulf Branch nature center, etc.
The maintenance, operating, and upgrade costs of their vanity projects will be outrageous.
Time for Barbara Donnellan to retire to her suburban enclave.
Why can't ART buses and Metrobuses be redesigned to look less like 20th buses and more like 21st Century surface transit vehicles?
I am waiting for the one of their corporate cronies to submit the first site plan for in-fill re-developing Douglas Park and Barcroft.
Redevelopment of Barcroft? Oh, dear. I shall be forced to take the $2 million I am offered for my post-war abode and flee to the hinterlands.
FYI, the pro-streetcar activists and several county employees are being paid-off in cash from pro-streetcar business owners and developers.
There are other YouTube videos on-line of the Vegas BRT, showing the vehicle on dedicated transit lanes in the suburbs and on city streets downtown.
Thousands in good old U.S. currency is flowing from the streetcar promoters to their 'neighborhood facilitators'.
Arlington County Government is increasingly corrupt? No, you must mean some other Arlington County.
No secret that many long-time residents of Barcroft and Douglas Park want to sell their single family homes for a lot of money and move away.
Then there's Mary Hynes's PLACE charade. We're all supposed to be nicey-nice to each other except County employees in the County Manager's office are demonizing anyone who opposes Zimmerman's trolley folly.
Business owners along the Pike are being asked to 'contribute' cash to 'facilitate' the streetcar.

PLACE charade? More expensive propaganda from the County Manager's PR Team. In fact "Whitlows Mary" Hynes allows all kinds of hooliganism to occur in her Clarendon neighborhood perpetrated by the local Yuptards. Most recently during the 10 day (March 8-18) Spring Yupfest.
FYI, CPRO is the go-to group for anyone who needs financial assistance to promote the Pike streetcar.
OH, NO !!! You didn't mean to show the Zimmercrats that the Las Vegas BRT can handle city streets, suburban highways, and transitways equally well? What are they going to DO? Guess they are going to have to bribe EVERYONE!
You can't show that ACE bus driving from curbside out onto traffic on the Vegas Strip from behind a double deck Deuce bus without the Zimmercrats losing all credibility for their Trolley Folly.
Bring the Feds in to investigate this corrupt, corrupt Arlington Government.
Feds must investigate the bus shelter fiasco.

The Vegas BRT does NOT need a dedicated bus lane.
Graft and bribery in Arlington? They're Chicago pol wannabes. Stay tuned for the U.S.S. Arlington pay-to-play Gala next weekend.
I want to see Zimmerman and Fisette, aka Grift and Graft, spending a lot of time together working on their next joint project - milking cows at the Federal Prison Farm in Allenwood at 5 AM.
Write your Congressperson about the Pike bus shelter rip off. I'm writing mine...he's not Jim Moran or Gerry Connally. Write Ken Cuccinelli too. Eighty percent of the money they are stealing and giving to their corporate cronies (who are kicking back 10%) comes from federal and state taxpayers.
If it weren't for Libby Garvey asking how much the Walter Reed bus shelter cost during a County Board - County Manager budget work session the Super Stops program would have continued, at a total cost of $25 - 30 million for 23 bus shelters.
Get federal and state law enforcement into this County ASAP. Put the scoundrels in front of a state and federal grand jury!
See anything significant about the million $ Pike bus shelter on the County Board's crony journalits' news blogs?
Agree - Get the Feds into investigating Arlington County Corrupt Government, ASAP!
It's federal and state grand jury time for the Zimmercrats !!!
Hi, how about a link to the CBS News report of the Walter Reed bus stop fiasco?
Walk a block to Penrose Square from the bus shelter and you will see two small brick and mortar walls that are "public art" which cost $450,000.
"Arlington Journalism" is an oxymoron.
The "Arlington Journalists" are deep in the pockets of of elected and special interest VIPs all right, and they are drowning in cash.
CBS News Report about the Pike bus shelter is at:
http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=50143744n
You may have to watch a commercial first.
What can we expect from $cott McCaffrey and the Committee of 100 on April 10th? Think they will have a Vegas ACE bus in the Marymount parking lot giving people rides up and down Glebe Road? I don't think so.
Committee of 100 dedicated to facilitating the County Board's and Chamber of Commerce's agendas.
The U.S. Transportation Department's Inspector General should be investigating and auditing the entire Small Starts / New Starts Program.
$ara$ota $cott McCaffrey is a total $hill for the Chamber of Commerce, County Government, and the $tatus quo. This guy has something to say about everything except the crumbling state of the public infrastructure in his own neighborhood, which contributors to A.Y. who live in and around Fairlington have been trying to get renovated for years.
Don't expect anything from $cott and the Committee of 100 Republicrats.
How about the Green Party? Bunch of former Hippies who live like small town Republicans in the Village of Westover and talk like Limo Liberals.
$cott McCaffrey brags about sitting between Mary Hynes and Jim Moran at a Republicrat do-gooder event? Another paragraph in the ongong saga: "Arlington Journalism, is an Oxymoron".
