Governor slams CTA

I just have to ask, where have you been all this time Governor. This probably could have been your issue a long time ago. Since people have gone after you on this issue now you're ready to pounce.

WMAQ-TV:
Gov. Rod Blagojevich slammed Chicago Transit Authority leadership Wednesday, accusing the agency of being dishonest to the public, and "scaring" the General Assembly into passing sales tax hikes.

The governor's comments were in reaction to Mayor Richard Daley, who said Blagojevich would be to blame if the CTA is forced to raise fares.
...
Blagojevich said everyone on the CTA board takes its marching orders from City Hall, and he plans on appointing new members to the CTA board who will think independently.
