Double-header

It's a measure of this wannabe judge that state Sen. Shawn Womack was disciplined by the state lawyers' ethics panel the same day he worked his will on the Senate to create a $60,000-a-year job that a couple of senators believe is unnecesssary. Said Sen. Dave Bisbee: "It's just growing and bloated up, senators hiring somebody to do their job." Bruce Campbell, a Huckabee administration officeholder, will be the Senate's pork barrel monitor.

I would ask Ark Fam's darling one question. When would Jesus turn his back on a single mother? Oh fie on Shawn...fie fie fie I say.

And like his father who art in DC, hiring a special projects czar is more money down a rat hole and another paradox for a small government loving Republican.

Even more than kidnapping and torturing, the main reason America is about to fall apart is that no one can do their job any more. The more they're paid the more incompetent they are. The top level of incompetents receive the Medal of Freedom after they've FK'ed every thing up to the max.

And notice no one is held accountable any more? Outside of 9 US Attorneys moved out of the way for Tim Griffin clones, name anyone else fired for incompetence.

But oh yes, let's toss Mexican babies over the fence and give some crackhead life in the big house!

It's not the crackheads ruining America.

You gotta love their Orwellian names:
" Senate Efficiency Committee"

You wonder if any of Womack's big government, pork-barrel antics get reported in his home territory, Mt. Home?

What's wrong with this picture? Paul Miller says the position itself is a joke, doesn't vote for it, but nominates Bruce Campbell to fill the position he is against, then walks out? WTF?
What experience does Bruce Campbell have in researching, applying for, and being awarded grant money?
