Democratic Lawmakers promised "openness and transparency" with regards to the budget process and their pet projects once gaining control of the House...How are they doing as one famous NY mayor would ask to assess public opinion of the job he is doing? Not Good!!!...CNN conducted a survey of the 435 House members and found that only 31 would make public their list of earmarks for Fiscal Year 2008...That's 404 members refused to make public the projects they are pushing with tax payer's money...Who are they? glad u asked...Follow the links to see which congressmen and women from your district refuses to make public projects they support...

Last year, the government of Mexico spent over 200 million USD lobbying and making political donations to Lawmakers in Washington...How many of these congressmen are putting the concerns of the people in their districts ahead of lobbyist and all others showing them the money?...I saw a report on HDNet that illustrated the amount of money flying in Washington via lobbyist...It's amazing we still call this a democracy...

But yet, when I post just one more Kobe to the Knicks thread, on the Knicks board, it gets blocked. And I agree, but still.
