Epic Ride The Monofail Fail

GOP Rep. Kevin Brady: drivin' the Monofail.
You may have heard that GOP Rep. Kevin Brady, staunch tea partier, is protesting that the taxpayer-funded D.C. Metro didn’t adequately prepare for the anti-government 9/12 rally. He’s even suggesting Metro’s failure to transport tea partiers may have hurt turnout.

A Democrat, however, points out to me that Brady voted against Federal funding for the very same Metro he’s blaming for offering the tea partiers substandard service.

Soon after the 9/12 march, Brady released a letter he sent to D.C. Metro griping that it had failed to transport tea partiers to the protest. Brady said they “were frustrated and disappointed that our nation’s capitol” failed to “provide a basic level of transit for them.”

Brady’s office complained about a train shortage. “METRO did not prepare for Tea Party March!” he tweeted. “People couldn’t get on, missed start of march. I will demand answers.”

But earlier this year, Brady voted against the stimulus package. It provided millions upon millions of dollars for all manner of improvements to … the D.C. Metro.

Seems Kevin Brady here surely didn't think the D.C. Metro was worthy of additional federal money before when it was carrying the residents of Washington D.C. But a bunch of touristy types show up, suddenly mass transit in the country is just terribly underfunded and it's all Obama's fault.

Hypocrite.

The Stimulus bill passed and these improvements to the system still left a gap in quality for some, so a complaint about a vote against the bill that funds it, or the failure of the funds. Which do you think is more relevent?
