		<description><![CDATA[Congressmen Jim McGovern and Richard Neal held a town hall on Obamacare at UMass Medical School today. Try though they might, they could not get the crowd that overflowed two big rooms to buy in to the stuff they were shoveling about universal health care. What appalls me most is that they stood there in [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m happy to see there are efforts underway to get a handle on the voting process here in Massachusetts. There will be a hearing on these bills on Wednesday, July 15, [...]]]></description>

From Townhall.com:
Three-term U.S. Congressman Dan Lipinski (D-Ill.) this month introduced a bill that would [...]]]></description>

Our elected officials are mere humans and humans in a position of power will more often than not do what it takes to keep their position of power. That includes breaking ethics laws and bending or ignoring [...]]]></description>

The Obama administration has several formerly private sectors on tinder hooks waiting for more bailout money.
