Senators

Currently, Senator Tom Coburn of Oklahoma is trying to bring the federal government's spending under a little bit more control by trying to remove some of the most egregious peices of pork out of it. This to make room for all the money to be spent on rebuilding Mississippi and Lousiana after Katrina and who knows what will be needed in Florida after Wilma swings through this weekend.

This sounds like a grand idea.

Unfortunately his amendments are going to down to defeat. Not only that but Patty Murray, one of the despicable human beings to ever serve in the Senate and that's saying something, is now threatening any Senator who votes with Coburn. I guess being able to wield power as a member of the Appropriations Committee by handing out unneeded projects and wasting billions of tax dollars is more important than taking care of thousands of citizens who are without. Isn't it great to see how liberal Democrats really care about the little people.

Murray should resign in disgrace and apologize to the people of the State of Washington for being a true bottom-feeder.
