Last night, October 1, 2008, the Senate met and voted and acted like true Statesman. Unlike the House who have used this crisis as a wiping post for each other. The idea of conduct, to be bestowing to the office held, should not be lost. However, I have heard that the senate members have added to the bill proposed for this crisis many unrelated ear marks. One is a repeal of an excise tax of $.39 cents per wooded toy arrow imported. Another is a reduction in tariff on Rum imports and a subsidy on Racing. There are many others, which cause a tax short fall and jeopardize the house passing it.
Does this mean that the Senate believes we need a bunch of drunken kids, racing around, shooting arrows at each other to solve the banking liquidity problem?
Believe it or not?
