Excerpt:

Maybe this will help Congress’ tanking poll numbers. From the Register:
“The U.S. Senate killed Earthpark’s $48.3 million federal grant Wednesday, putting the $150 million project in jeopardy.
Beth Levine, a spokesman for Sen. Charles Grassley, confirmed that budget language inserted by a senator – she isn’t sure who – rescinded the grant.

You probably won’t hear me say this much, but kudos to Sen. Chuck Grassley for voting to hold Karl Rove and Josh Bolten in contempt of Congress for failing to comply with subpoenas investigating the fired US Attorneys probe. It proves that every once in a while Grassley can be a respectable Republican.

Good for Chuck Grassley. I’m betting that Tom Harkin is thinking/saying/planning on doing the same thing. David Oman has swindled enough people with this ridiculous project.
And let me just say this: I’m quite surprised and fascinated by the secrecy that Oman and the Earthpark supporters are using (and have used) with regards to […]

Excerpt:

Sen. Chris Dodd of Connecticut gave what many consider to be a barn-burner of a speech on Sunday at the 30th Annual Harkin Steak Fry, and from my seat close to the stage on the press riser I’d have to agree. One of the most riveting moments was when Sen. Dodd called for the […]
