Lord almighty! Katie Couric and CBS News have actually done a hard-hitting report on congress’ profligate spending at the recent Copenhagen global warming confab. And it came perilously close to actually slamming Democrats.
Of course, the entourage was lead by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who also had the final decision on who could attend. The guest list included House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer. And embattled noted corrupt negro Congressman Charles Rangel.
They were joined by Democrats Waxman, Miller, Markey, Gordon, Levin, Blumenauer, DeGette, Inslee, Ryan, Butterfield, Cleaver, Giffords, and by Republicans Barton, Upton, Moore-Capito, Sullivan, Blackburn.
(For the record, let’s point out that that’s a total of 15 Democrats and only 5 Republicans. And shame on the Republicans.)
The corruptocrat delegation was so large that it required three military jets — two 737’s and a Gulfstream Five — to haul their fat asses across the Atlantic in luxury.
Throw in a few Senators and a passel of staffers (most of whom were forced to endure the indignity of flying commercial at up to $2000 each) and CBS News figures there were at least 101 Congress-related attendees. They booked more than 321 total nights in Copenhagen’s luxurious 5-star Marriott Hotel.
We’re not sure if it’s caused by global warming, but we’re starting to get a little hot under the collar.

Why would the Pols not go, after all, the ladies of the night already said that they would service the delegates as a public service. And Pols know about public service...
These people are doing the work of the people....Leave them alone!
Perhaps we could get that strange guy who did the "leave lyndsay alone" youtube vids to do one in support of our royalty, er, I mean Congress
The only good thing I see about this is:
When Congress is on a junket, there is less chance of them passing some stupid piece of legislation at home. Maybe they should have stayed on at Copenhagen for another 11 months. It may be the less expensive option!
I believe the bill should be sent to Al Gore & General Electric. They seem to be the ones who will profit the most if this scam is imposed on We, the People...They should pick up the tab.
Just another example of the separation between a corrupt government and their long forgotten constituents, if they are so blatant on letting the public see this type of needless spending, one can only guess at the degree of tax payer thief that takes place behind the closed doors of deal making, immoral, incompetent, purchased crooks of government. If it were only possible to find an organization that actually believed in ethics to do an in depth investigation of our so called leaders, I doubt any would escape jail and worldly confiscation gain by fleecing the tax payers.
I would have thought, considering the subject matter, that the person recording it would have being spewing his guts out rather than sneezing. It would have been more appropriate.
