PS...It appears Hillary is a member of "The Third Way Foundation" - A Marxist group. Go figure.
I have always wondered how 1st Lady Clinton could take her "child" and entourage to Africa and Asia, all expenses paid at taxpayer expense.
Where in the Constitution does it grant the 1st Lady unlimited budget for Travel and Perks?
Why wasn't she called to account by the Congressional Budget Office?
What authoritized her to include her enormous retinue?
Delay, he is a piker compared to the former 1st Lady!
With you on that,Eagle!
| In another case, an aide to House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., had not reported a 2004 trip to South Korea until a Washington Post reporter asked her office about it.
What, it didn't? Why not?
Oh, see that? Pelosi's office apologized after being tipped off by the Washington Post that she had a problem. Nothing to see here folks... move along. Ya gotta love the media. Bias? What bias? |
Today saw in a Time Mag Pelosi being asked why was it ok to pay her son? one or two hundred thousand dollars over two years out of the same funds.... she said he was doing a job and is very good at it... whats good for the goose....
Big deal Congress are crooks..Kerry didn't work a lick and he got full pay...where's the outrage?
While the Senate deliberates the nuclear option, the House seems bent on mutually assured destruction. Dr. Strangelove couldn't have written a better script for the collapse of political discourse in this country.
I've thought since the beginning this was a suicidal attack. There's nothing but glass houses out there on this issue.
Stupid.
If any of the Democrats inattention to rules
1) Breaks on the front page of any MSM and
2) Gets more than a day or two of coverage
It will be a cold day in a very warm place . . . .
That's a really nice link.
From that site, here:

is a nice chart. Folks should check the R-D split for the top 10, just for grins.
Good. It's about time BOTH sides of the aisle realize that they have to play by the rules. I welcome it. Any elected official's actions should be beyond reproach, and so maybe this will start to remove the lobbyist money from the halls of power.
This is the press' role in a free society - to act as a watchdog on the government.
Worthless bastard Hastert is trying to emulate the infamous Sen. Joseph McCarthy.
It ain't so.
Terrible when your boys and gals get caught doing the same things that "evil" Tom Delay did.
Glass houses and all that.
That's a fun top ten list
1. BREAUX, JOHN B 61
2. FORD, HAROLD E JR 60
3. BIDEN, JOSEPH R JR 56
4. WATERS, MAXINE 52
5. FRANK, BARNEY 51
6. LIEBERMAN, JOSEPH I 49
7. JONES, STEPHANIE TUBBS 47
8. CLYBURN, JAMES 45
9. BAYH, EVAN 42
10. MCDERMOTT, JIM 39
Where is Mr. Delay? And why do members of the irrelevant minority party get so many trips comped? Seems like a bad investment on the part of the lobbyists.
Good analogy. The Hollywood Ten WERE commies, and at least 4 top-level
democrats ARE unethical hypocrites. The house democrats, in their irrational
thirst for vengeance, have opened up a can of worms........too funny.
I wish that were true! Maybe then we'd have some investigation of the socialists and communists infesting our government.

And of course that immediately resulted in a big story in the Washington Post headlined Pelosi Failed to Report Trip.
