Kareval, I don't think they even care about our opinion. If you disagree with them, you are just a trouble maker and threatened to keep your mouth shut.

I know they don't care....but it's ironic that they were the ones bitching about CEO's using private jets after the stimulus package passed...they're all a bunch of PIGS.

"We ask for what we need and only what we need," he told reporters Wednesday. "We've always frowned upon earmarks and additives that are above and beyond what we ask for."

This month, for example, 11 separate congressional delegations will swing through Germany. House Minority Leader John Boehner of Ohio is leading five other lawmakers on a trip around the world. Sen. Richard Shelby (R., Ala.) is taking a group of senators and their spouses to Europe for three weeks.

A spokesman for Mr. Boehner said he couldn't comment on the trip for security reasons. A spokeswoman for Mr. Shelby said the same.
