Funny how they were so against ethics reform a few months ago, but now they want earmark reform. Yes we do need it, but I can’t help think that this is an election year ploy, especially when they are issuing this statement from a lobbyist funded retreat. They also had no problems with earmarks a […]
This is a sure indicator of how much the world is anticipating a new leader in the U.S.: From Berlin to London to Jakarta, the destinies of Democratic and Republican contenders in Iowa or New Hampshire, or Nevada or South Carolina, have become news in a way that most political commentators cannot recall.

Check this out from last night’s debate and listen for the little whisper of “raise taxes”.
