What's Wrong With this Picture?

Today's paper was just weird. Here are some of the things I think need changed!
  • Automatic weapons being discussed in the KS Legislature. This is an obvious plant to bring up gun ownership by taking and talking about the extreme. There is ust no reason for citizens to have automatic weapons or sell them in KS. If you want to shoot a machine gun, join the National Guard.
  • The US Senate passed voted down a bill to stop the process of earmarking items in the Federal Budget (For those of you out there that don't understand Pork Barrel this is probably way over your head) The Senate needs to understand that it is our dollars they are spending and 2 million for a museum at Woodstock is pork barrel and not needed. Never Re-Elect Anyone!
  • There needs to be a cap on how much executives get reimbursed for legal fees when they get brought into Federal Court for stealing millions from the Company they represent. Whittig is asking for $700 an hour to pay for the NYC team that is keeping him out of Jail. We are paying for this and there should be a cap somewhere.
That's all for today, Barb says you hate it when I rant on for paragraphs.

    Here's a link to how your congressman voted on the earmark issue. I encourage everyone to bookmark your congressman's page and let them know how you feel. If you are really serious, send a dollar to his opponent every time he/she votes contrary to your wishes and let your congressman know you did.
