Tony Blankley goes out on a limb here and it's dangerously close to breaking. I strongly agree that the retired generals speaking out is in poor taste and curiously timed at best but in the end, it's legal and something we're just going to have to live with. Treason, mutiny and sedition are very strong accusations to sling and he ought to have more sense than to smear these guys with so little evidence.
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.
