Lawmakers Spend Money on Big Screens
"Reps. David Dreier (R-Calif.), Mark Souder (R-Ind.) and John Murtha (D-Pa.) spent more than $5,700 each on plasma-screen televisions. Rep. Jim Cooper (D-Tenn.) decided his office could use a $623 popcorn machine, while Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) shelled out $823 for an ionic air freshener and Rep. Clay Shaw (R-Fla.) paid $444 for TiVo."
Everyone in Congress needs a plasma TV right? It's nice to see congress spend tax money in a responsible manner. Meanwhile they are cutting Pell Grant money for College and can't seem to figure out how to fund a rebuilding in New Orleans or cut my taxes.
