Hezbollah was using UN post as 'shield'. The headline says it all. The jihadis are playing the media like a fiddle. I'm simply amazed that the MSM is either so craven or ignorant that they continue to let it happen. Personally, I vote for ignorant. Reporters don't like to be played but they're often too stupid to see it coming. They get blinded by the exciting newsbites that feature this scandal or that explosion and don't think beyond producing the segment for the upcoming broadcast.
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.
