Biting the hand that feeds you

A feature story on the Bloomberg Media web site entitled Bush Rebuffs Allies Seeking Spending Increase for U.S. Highways, is the first I've read that points out how solidly the transportation industry supported President Bush in the last election, and how Bush is not reciprocating that support. While defense contractors, oil and gas, companies and other industry sectors have seen White House support for their key initiatives, transportation is getting the cold shoulder on its key initiative, TEA-21 reauthorization.
