Obama Speaks on Transportation Projects


Also, John Porcari, secretary of transportation for Maryland, has been nominated for deputy of the transportation department under Ray LaHood:
Transportation Secretary John Porcari, one of the most respected members of Gov. Martin O'Malley's cabinet, has been nominated by President Obama as second-in-command at the federal Department of Transportation, the White House announced today.

Porcari's departure will be a big loss for the O'Malley administration: He's a hardworking and experienced road and rail wonk whom the governor lured to his cabinet for a second tour as chief of Maryland's highway and public transit systems, the Port of Baltimore, BWI Marshall Airport, and the motor vehicle agency. He'll help oversee a transportation workforce of 55,000. WaPo

Gibbs Press Briefing April 9

Obama's doing a transportation event on Monday in Maryland. Tuesday, the Philadelphia Phillies will be in D.C. to celebrate their World Series victory and Obama will be heading to Mexico on Thursday. There will be an event on Wednesday but Gibbs didn't give any details. The press is really worried about whether Obama bowed to King Abdullah or not. Earth to media and wingnuts: WE DON'T CARE.
