You are piling on about something that has nothing to do with the article nor the Red Line. Mulhern is doing the only thing he can do with the Red Line so don't give him any of the crap you guys are flinging. Would you prefer that the Red Line be cut off for months on end like the bridges down in New York were? How about extremely limited service and disruptions every weekend like the Blue and Orange Lines?I agree that it's not so simple as saying Mulhern's remarks originate from a real preference for buses.
Enough is enough. You guys are acting like trolls whenever you hear his name in the news regardless of what it is. Give it a rest.
But the comments here aren't unique to this board. Anyone I've encountered who is frustrated with his overall anti-rail agenda has seized the opportunity to say, "there he goes again."
Mulhern bears a large portion of the responsibility for this. He's made his positions clear in the past and has largely himself to blame for the reputation that precedes him and arouses this sort of talk. I don't have a lot of sympathy for him.
