By vjack on | From msatheists.org
Image via Wikipedia I don't get to say this very often, but thanks to Sen. Thad Cochran for voting against the Wall Street bailout .

Mississippi Embarrassment

By Bkearan on | From bobbyshead.blogspot.com
Well, its time to get local myself.  Mississippi is the butt of many jokes - and our national representatives not only embody most of it, they encourage it. Our Senators  topped the charts on earmarks in the Republican opposed Omnibus Bill. Roger Wicker introduced a bill thinly veiled as "states' rights" to allow them to screw constituents out of health care protections granted by the Health Insurance Reform bill. "At the end of the day, (the other nullification laws) were largely an...Read Full Story
