To The Winners Go The Spoils
How about a quick recap of what the Republicans have been spending their "political capital" on in the last week:
- Because one of their corrupt leaders will likely be criminally indicted any day, they got rid of the rule which said House leaders had to step down if they were indicted. Classy.
- They tried to slip a provision into the spending bill which would allow the majority party to look at any American citizens' tax returns. Yes, yours too.
- They increased America's debt ceiling by eight hundred billion dollars - following my old student loan strategy: "borrow yourself rich!"
- Because the country is so strapped for cash, they voted to buy a yacht for President Bush.
Power corrupts. Republican power corrupts absolutely.

Its disappointing to see politicians purchasing extravagant items like a yacht considering the budget crisis. What is more disappointing is the American people seem to not care. We get what we deserve and the politicians will continue to do this because they can.
