McCaskill translation:
“We can’t pass this bailout plan in a partisan manner because when the plan is made public and everybody sees the pork and fraud, we will never be elected to a majority for the rest of the century.”
Does anyone have a link to what Rush read before the break regarding officials in St. Louis pursuing charges against anyone who criticizes Obama?
“We can’t pass this bailout plan in a partisan manner because when the plan is made public and everybody sees the pork and fraud, we will never be elected to a majority for the rest of the century.”
Seems to me that she has no business voting on any of these bailout plans:
14. Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.)
$19.42 million
McCaskill watched her net worth grow in 2007, increasing more than 24 percent over her estimated $15.66 million total in 2006.
Among McCaskill’s major assets: approximately 270 limited partnerships in affordable housing real estate and a handful of “enterprise trust investment funds” held by her husband that showed a combined increase of approximately $2.7 million in value from last year.
Her spouse purchased a Kansas City, Mo., housing bond listed in the “over $1 million” category.
The Senator’s husband also identified a loan of at least $1 million, the only liability listed by the couple, from Enterprise Bank.
Sheesh, is there not one Democrat who can resist voting on legislation that would personally benefit them?
