Well, maybe not lie, but it’s certainly an exaggeration. Sen. Arlen Specter tweets:

With new $28 million investment, Pennsylvania could soon build the best rail system in the country. Imagine the jobs it will create.

Actually, the $28 million is for “pre-engineering work, financial estimates, an independent cost-analysis and other work” for a proposed maglev train from Philly to Pittsburgh. Will Pennsylvania voters ask the good senator what exactly he means by “soon?”
