Politics: Sen. Mary Landrieu was the new "Louisiana Purchase." Sen. Ben Nelson got the federal government to pick up his state's future Medicaid tab. Maybe we should just put Senate votes up on eBay. Nelson, the 60th vote in the middle-of-the-night Senate party line vote on health care reform, will go down in American political history as the inventor of the permanent earmark. His seemingly principled stand against including federal funding for

It will be interesting when the final votes come up,
Obama has only begun to pay.
It is like the old joke,
we have established that they are whores,
now the issue is how much.

[FreedBird]

Government of payoffs and deal making. Who else are they paying off? Is the media paid off? They will take hard earned tax money and pay off anyone who questions their insanity. Spending is out of control.

Tough sh*t....it's long been my understanding that the Simon family who own Omaha Steaks are huge 'Rat supporters.

Amazing!!
Well, when I win the Lottery, that is one company I will boycott.
Easy to boycott them right now- I am living on frozen Soc Sec checks from the annointed one in the Oval Office.

Ditto me that....when I was in the seafood biz, they'd buy Australian lobster tails from us at around 20 bucks a pound, and catalogue 'em out at around $94.00.

[ZOOKER]

I have said on other threads that Reid, Nelson, and especially Landrieu owe former Senator Jefferson (D-LA) a pardon and apology.

Jefferson, currently serving time, was corrupt as they come, but not with MY money.

And the problem with that is?...............is $84 too much?,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,$74...................$64....................$54...............$24?

[ErnBatavia]

Just pointin’ out an interesting point.....400% markups are at the high end of reality.

“State Motto: “Equality Before the Law””

I think they are going to have to find a new motto.

[Pablo64]

Rather ironic, isn’t it?

It wasn't very long after, a benevolent Reid

Took me in offin' the streets.

And one week later I was po'in his tea

In a K-street hotel suite.

A con, a thief, a Senator

An occasional Las Vegas RAT

An' I gots me a Georgetown mansion

An' an elly-gant DC townhouse flat

An' Ah ain't done ba--ad

[Mamzelle]

Dey iz a house in N' Ahleens

Dey calls de Risin' Sun

An' its bin the ruin of many a po ho

Mary knows, becauz she's one

I’m not sure if its ironic or just the usual BS that politicians hand out because they think it will make people feel better when they are being being lied to.
