That what Republican Whip Eric "PATRIOT Act" Cantor meant when he replied to my concern about my unemployment insurance benefits -- I had paid the premiums for 30 years -- being taxed at the same rate as my former salary? He assured me he would see that the government spent my former money wisely? Not what I wanted to hear. Maybe his opponent Floyd Bayne will be HIS bane.

I am confident that Congress will find more ways to spend our money.
Can you say "kleptocracy"?

I really like the fact that the highest rating congress has ever gotten was 42% in 73. Not exactly our favorite institution.
Can't remember where I read/heard it but I remember something like "Congress does its best work in recess." At least when it's in recess the pols can't hurt us.
"Gee, ya think there might be a link between these two stories?"
