Good Reporting from CBS

CBS has a remarkable reporter who can be counted on to go after the fiscal promiscuity of our politicians and bureaucrats.  Here is an excellent example of Sharyl Attkisson's good work:

In addition to speaker Pelosi, who managed this expensive junket, and leader Steny Hoyer and Tax Avoider, 'er, we mean, tax chairman Charles Rangel, Nancy's chosen few include:  Democrats: Waxman, Miller, Markey, Gordon, Levin, Blumenauer, DeGette, Inslee, Ryan, Butterfield, Cleaver, Giffords, and Republicans: Barton, Upton, Moore Capito, Sullivan, Blackburn and Sensenbrenner.

Please remember these names.  They come from all over America.  It may be appropriate for you in their districts to consider working to make sure that each of these congress people has the opportunity come November of this year to use their talents in a different vocation.
In all, the taxpayers paid for a total of 36 representatives and 36 senators to attend this nonsense on your dime.  That, of course, does not count the vast dollar and carbon expenditures generated by your great community leader and his cast of hundreds that must accompany him wherever the whims and winds blow.

Last, if you have 2 or 3 minutes and want to have some fun, take a look at this CNN commentary picking up on the CBS report and capturing the essence of madame speaker --  "She’s a horrible woman."  Go to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6_xgKWzhRw&feature=player_embedded

Just think how quickly we could get America back to fiscal sanity (sacrifice and frugality) if we saw and heard more of this reporting and commentary on all the stations regularly.
