Seib: Congress Unloved, Unsupported

We put these respresentatives of the people in office. I have supported a coupleof them with time and money.

It is time to send this gang into the private sector.

Addicted to More

When my daughter reaches into the scrapbook of her mind, the trips to park, showing up at school events, just hanging out are the ones that bubble to the surface.

She is child of two divorced parents who made/make a decent buck. She has had some awesome vacations. Why? Well if he is taking her to the Caymans, I must counter that with a trip to Aruba.

It was my mother, who pointed out what I was doing. Mind you, she was a companion on these competitive vacations. But she was right. My daughter lumps the trip to the park in the same category as an exotic trip.

In either place, she wanted spend time with her parents. So how about less time at work chasing "more" and more time with the little people.

How dare we get annoyed with their lack of appreciation.....

Children just want our time.

Arlen Specter, Grabbing the headlines

I am not a fan of Arlen Specter. He has made a career of being in front of the cameras. He prides himself on being independent man of the people. Sounds a little too much like Lieberman. Even when Lieberman is wrong, you know where he stands. With Specter you just never know where he is going to turn up on an issue. Wherever it is, it is sure to get him in the newspapers.
He sold his soul to the White House in order to keep his job in the Senate. Now that Shrub's ratings are plummeting, Specter feels safe in attacking the policies of this administration.

The WSJ does not address the fact that Specter is now trying to overturn a piece of legislation that he voted for....
