Major Point: While this would not save a whole lot of money, if our senators cannot even support cutting ridiculous spending on things like cat and dog food, spa products, wine tasting, etc., HOW can we expect them to ELIMINATE DEPARTMENTS, CUT SPENDING, AND BALANCED THE BUDGET???

How is it looking for Richard Mourdock up there in Indiana? I heard that he is getting attacked for opposing Obamacare. Do you think his chances of winning in the general election are still good?

I am optimistic that he will when , he will need huge majorites in the rural counties , but I believe it will happen.

Good for the 69 Senators. When I buy a fine wine or purchase cat food, I need to know that Olympia Snowe and Richard Lugar have personally checked it out. Without money going towards this, chaos would rule the day.
