Billions for pricey light rail and support for Mayor Funky is still being disguised as a rebellion against the KC "elite." Ugh.

Apparently, The Pitch is the last publication still buying the Orange Revolution line and a recent column by David Martin might as well have been written by former Pitch Staffer Joe Miller. It's the same tired line about how the "elite" won't give the "regular folk" what they want!!! It's a great strategy until the sticker shock for a MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR light rail plan full of flaws is revealed as the alternative. Also, I'm surprised that The Pitch is still in the pocket of the Funky Administration despite their low approval rating in the urban core. Seriously.
