The effort marks the one-year anniversary of President Barack Obama signing the spending bill into law. The DNC claimed in a conference call on Tuesday that as many as 93 Republican lawmakers had claimed benefits for the stimulus in their states or districts after having voted against the package. source: http://thehill.com/b...-hypocrites-video "Chicago to my mind was the only place to be. ... I above all liked the city because it was filled with people all a-bustle, and the clatter of hooves and carriages, and with delivery wagons and drays and peddlers and the boom and clank of freight trains. And when those black clouds came sailing in from the west, pouring thunderstorms upon us so that you couldn't hear the cries or curses of humankind, I liked that best of all. Chicago could stand up to the worst God had to offer. I understood why it was built--a place for trade, of course, with railroads and ships and so on, but mostly to give all of us a magnitude of defiance that is not provided by one house on the plains. And the plains is where those storms come from." -- E.L. Doctorow

Feds gonna blow all that money...but I'm going to tell my taxpayer constituents that they should get zero since I didn't like the plan...or be called a hypocrite by the DNC. I'll take the hypocrite label and tell my voters I got them the cash...every time. I will choose a path that's clear. I will choose freewill.
