Unlike a lot of those who just love the left, when a Dem steps up and does the right thing, I will be one of the first to say kudos,good job, about time!
I have never liked this guy, mostly due to his lack of 2nd Amendment knowledge, but Russ Feingold, Democrat from our neighboring state Wisconsin, has done the right thing. He has written to the President, and urged him to veto this pork laden budget bill.
While the President claimed yesterday that he doesn’t follow the stock market on a daily basis, even though it has fell 3,000 pts despite all his (best????) efforts, congressmen on both sides of the isle are standing up and saying this bill with over 8,500 ear marks and pork. Irresponsible spending at this point would be ill-advised at best, and disastrous at worse.
While the president is telling the people to act responsibility in their spending (unless you are investing into the market), Washington has done nothing but spend, spend and spend. Although I am not saying that some spending may be necessary, the wasteful spending that has taken place has been a joke.
