EARMARKS ARE EVIL. Here are some highlights of the worst-of-the-worst earmarks in Chuck Schumer’s +1,000 page spending rampage. And keep in mind, we will be borrowing the money to pay for these pet-projects… 1. $1.6 million for “artist living and working space” in New York. No offense to NY, but I think y'all have some more urgent matters to attend to. 2. $1 million to expand a LGBT… Read more »

A handful of reporters have asked why I voted against the aid package for Israel last week. Obviously, I’m not opposed to the concept of assistance for Israel, but friends we’re $34 trillion dollars in the hole with deficits spiraling out of control.
