Sen. Feinstein wants $25 Billion to help hubby

The arrogance of our elected officials never ceases to amaze me.

The Washington Times informs us that Sen. Diane Feinstein wanted $25 billion in taxpayer money to help her husband's business. $25 billion dollars!

"On the day the new Congress convened this year, Sen. Dianne Feinstein introduced legislation to route $25 billion in taxpayer money to a government agency that had just awarded her husband's real estate firm a lucrative contract to sell foreclosed properties at compensation rates higher than the industry norms.

Mrs. Feinstein's intervention on behalf of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. was unusual: the California Democrat isn't a member of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs with jurisdiction over FDIC; and the agency is supposed to operate from money it raises from bank-paid insurance payments - not direct federal dollars."


Simply unbelievable. Rangle. Murtha. Jefferson. Feinstein. Frank. Is there no end? Is there no punishment for any of these people?
