Years of expensive private education hasn't saved me from myself yet occasionally I find brilliance in the oddest places.

And one of the biggest porkers for this program just happens to be Rep. Frank Lucas (R Iowa). So guess who the Republican leadership has appointed as chair of the House Agriculture Committee. One more Good Old Boy Washington Thief in position where he can really get his hands in the tax payers pockets. Every time I look over the credentials of another committee appointment I find another shake and bake porker! So what are we tax payers to expect from this Congress that toutes be different from the last?<br />I am beginning to think that only a meteor making a direct hit on Washington DC will save our nation.pissed toonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5486208150044133942.post-26461327515592388172012-01-24T11:45:32.723-08:002012-01-24T11:45:32.723-08:00Ineffective Government Programs
