Michael J. Totten shows once again why he is far better than his MSM peers with “The Head of the Snake”. It put a knot in my stomach. Remember this when people say Saddam's Iraq wasn't that bad. I long for the days when liberals were the ones who wanted to topple dictators.
Feds eye Stevens' home remodeling project
Feds eye Stevens' home remodeling project . Thank God they're going after this guy. He's been so brazen with his porkbarreling and the whiff of corruption around him has been ripe enough to smell from here. I'd rather have a 100% democrat run Congress if they were ethical. Term limits. One term for Senate, two for the House, one for the President. Some fear that would increase the power of lobbyists. Simple, ban any former members from being lobbyists and limit lobbyists to terms as well. (I'm not sure how that would work. Just a thought.) The other answer is transparency. No earmarks without a floor vote. No spending of any kind without a floor vote. All spending committees (intelligence aside) open to the public and recorded and available on the web.
