Fatal crashes prompt bus safety hearing - The Hill's Transportation Report

Here we go again!

The operative quote:
 
"A Senate panel will examine bus safety in a hearing next week in the wake of two Northeast bus crashes that killed more than 15 people.
“The tragic series of bus crashes in New Jersey and the Northeast have exposed serious weaknesses in the safety of our nation’s bus system,” Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.), the  chairman of the Senate Transportation’s Surface Transportation subcommittee, said in a statement."

Frank, Frank, FRANK! A "series" is more than two crashes! "Duh" - slap head here!

As a voter in America -  I really don't see how two bus crashes in the northeast killing 15 people at the tail end of the worst winter ever recorded has "exposed serious weakness in the safety of our bus system." What I would say is it has exposed a serious weakness in our election process to choose viable leaders to do real work for the people - like for example -  protecting Americans from domestic (Muslim) acts of terror, ensuring the sovereignty on the southern American border with a WALL, eliminating trillions of dollars of national debt, creating a climate of freedom to allow millions of individuals out of work - to go back to work, eliminating Federal Government programs which lead to foreclosures on an unprecedented scale and eliminating barriers to domestic oil drilling and production which are causing rising oil prices and the loss of security. "Now those are "serious weaknesses" Frank!" But you go on being distracted and unfocused Frank, me, I am going to stay focused on seeing people like you retired and forgotten in 2012.
