Wouldn't you love to have a job that not only gave you six months of vacation but they paid for all of the best golf and the best hotels and dining for you and your wife on top of that?
Well, if you do, all you have to do is become a Republican congressman and use the taxpayers' money to give those who pay for all that extravagance a few hundred million in kick backs.
Is there really any wonder why the federal budget goes upside down every time Republicans take control of government? If you answered anything but 'no' to that question you're either a Republican or stupid - But then of course, that's being redundant, isn't it?
Boehner has spent nearly six months on privately funded trips since 2000 "House Majority Leader John A. Boehner (Ohio), who rose to power in the wake of a congressional lobbying scandal, spent the equivalent of nearly six months on privately funded trips over the past six years, according to a new study by a nonpartisan research group. The Center for Public Integrity said that Boehner accepted 42 privately sponsored trips from January 2000 to December 2005. That put him on the road to other countries and "golfing hotspots," often with his wife, Debbie, for about half a year, "only nine days of which he listed as being 'at personal expense,' " the center said. Boehner also flew at least 45 times on corporate jets owned by companies "with a financial stake in congressional affairs" from June 2001 through September 2005, the center reported".Does anybody think it's hilarious that the Republicans chose Boehner to lead them out of their perception of corruption? That is a clear example of how deep-seated the corruption is in the Republican Party. For those of you who vote for Republicans-You sure are a bunch of dumbasses!
