February 6, 200917 yr There is enough hypocrocy to go around: Senator David Vitter, R Louisianna, speaking out against funding to fight STDs (remember the prostitute scandal he was involved in?) House Minority leader, John Boehner, R Ohio, saying that Dems are operating under a "flawed notion that this country can spend its way back to prosperity....." of course he took a different stance last June when he said, "Of course the price of this package is high, but can you really put a price on Freedom and Prosperity?" when discussing the Iraq Spending Package. Rep. Darrell Lisa, R California: upset over the 2 billion dollars to be spent improving roads and infrastructure in our National Parks. In 2007 when speaking before a committee regarding reconstruction spending in Iraq he tried to explain away 12 Billion dollars in unaccounted for money!
February 13, 200917 yr Author #11. PETA, whose members are far more likely to vote Democratic, protested at the Westminister Dog Kennel show in KKK garb. Why wasn't there hell raised about such a showing? What if some one had shown up in DC on Jan. 20th dressed like this, they would have been arrested. Why the double standard? Oh, that's right, the liberal elist's are so much better than everyone else they can do this and it is OK.

March 4, 200917 yr Obama's Secretary of Labor candidate appears to have House Ethics issues. She failed to disclose that she was the treasurer of a pro-union lobby group. What is wrong with being Pro-union ? About time we had someone pro labor heading the Department of Labor .
March 4, 200917 yr What is wrong with being Pro-union ? About time we had someone pro labor heading the Department of Labor . Not a thing wrong with being pro union. The problem is that she failed to disclose the relationship. It also brings up once again the lobbyists in Obama's administration after he said there would be no room for them.

It would be equivalent to the Secretary of HHS not disclosing that he is on the board of a pharmaceutical, hospital or insurance company.
March 4, 200917 yr Author #13. While union members are laid-off, union leaders are living high on the hog at a working retreat in Florida. The rooms start at $400 per night. Where is the outrage that money is being spent while people are laid-off.
March 6, 200917 yr Author #14. Nancy Pelosi seeing to it that Starkist, whose headquarters is in San Francisco, received special treatment in recent bills.

March 12, 200917 yr Author Nazi-Nancy and her private jet usage as the epitome of hypocrisy . (We could use a whole thread on her hypocrisy ) Interesting to see how this plays out in the media. As it has now made the national news with her wanting the military be her personal valet service.
March 12, 200917 yr Interesting to see how this plays out in the media. As it has now made the national news with her wanting the military be her personal valet service. This came out shortly after she was elected speaker but died rather quickly.
March 12, 200917 yr Author This came out shortly after she was elected speaker but died rather quickly. It is back. O'Reilly had a segment about it last night. I believe he said he was going to expand on it tonight (3-12-09). If you go to Drudge's recent headlines 3-10-09 there is another article about her situation.
