Barton spoke the truth.

And while we’re on the subject of slush funds, where did all that so-called ‘Stimulus’ money go? Anyone?

How about the Cayman Islands.

Democrats want Barton to resign
Yet Bob Ethridge can stay after assaulting a college student. But don't dare to use your first amendment rights.

[CanaGuy]

that money is pure gravy.

0's group in contol of $20 billion?

Is it a slush fund?

Is a dead pelican black and slick?

All too typical is the way 0 simpered his way vaguely past the detail -- ". . . $20 billion dollars in a fund to be controlled by a third party" or something to that effect.

This will be another funding source for buying votes more than it will be a fund for helping people recover from the oil disaster.

How about another promise to have a website where people can go to see an accounting of every dime that is spent from BP's fund? Oh, that scam has already been played and carnival hucksters try to avoid running the same game twice.

And before anyone picks up the point, I realize that referring to 0 as a carnival huckster is somewhat of an insult to carnival hucksters.

It’s a $20 billion dollar Trial Lawyer Enrichment Fund.

$20 billion is Obama “walking around cash.”

[paristwelve]

Republicans are distancing themselves from their colleague’s remarks but in the name of bipartisanship are examining how the 20 billion will be distributed.

[Man50D]

Hannity had someone from Fox Business news on his show earlier this week about the financial aspect of the oil leak. She reported BP does not have $20 billion. They have only $7 billion dollars on its balance sheet. The $13 billion dollar short fall will have to be paid for by the taxpayers.

20 billion is what Jamie Gorelick has decided is needed to keep the details of the Obama Administrations relationship with BP off the MSM agenda from now until the the fall elections.Nothing more...nothing less...

[Dixie Yooper]

There's no question about it being a slush fund. The only question I have, is Obama going to share it with his fellow Democrats in the upcoming midterm elections, or is he going to save it until 2012 for his own reelection campaign?

[dalebert]

I dont expect that cash to reach anything but democrat hands until its disposed of..its probaly the campaigne funds. It certainly wont cover the cost of damage and job loss obama policy is causing.

[poobear]

When a “non-partisan” czar and his bureaucrats are in charge of the distribution, YES!

[Venturer]

Republicans made Joe Wilson apologise too, but Joe was right, Obama lied.

Republicans have no courage. They fold up like a cheap suit.

[Wolfie]

Let the taxapayers pay for the mess.

[ThunderSleeps]

Depends, who gets to control the fund and how it is used and abused?

Will it be handled as well as porkus? As well as the cash for clunkers?

[njmaugbill]

Yes. (one word needed).
