NYT Foiled Again

Opinion/Editorial



    Well its nice to be back bashing the so called leaders of the leftist print/lame stream media.This mornings lead OPED in this mornings New York Times "The Full-Employment Congress" is the title.
    Although I am not a big fan of US.Rep.and GOP Presidential candidate Ron Paul (R-Tx) but he does need support when the NYT attacks him.
    The rant begins "Representative Ron Paul’s signature libertarianism takes on a whole new meaning with the disclosure that he has paid more than $300,000 in salaries and fees to his daughter, brother, grandson, daughter’s mother-in-law, granddaughter and grandson-in-law. There is no Congressional ethics rule against employing family members in the pursuit of public service, as the office of Mr. Paul, Texas Republican and presidential candidate, points out.But a new report detailing how the families of more than half of all House members similarly benefited financially from their ties with a lawmaker makes for particularly interesting reading when politicians all over are promising voters: jobs, jobs, jobs."
  All fine and well but why arenot the Democrat lawmakers mentioned oh they conveinently left it out though.With the left wing media at times like the NYT it's not that they don't report the news its also when they leave out the facts and different parts that is just as bad as the liberal bias.
 Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Ca) her  Daughter: Christine Pelosi (former chief of staff for US Rep. John Tierney (D-Ma) my old Congressman from the Massachusett 6th Congressional so hey NYT a little more fact checking before you go to bat for your Demorat buddies.In fact other of Pelosi's family have Government hack jobs her Son: Paul Pelosi Jr. (President of San Francisco's Commission on the Environment) back in her district.
  Here is the rest of the BS rant "Eighty-two lawmakers paid family members through their office payrolls, campaign committees and political-action funds, according to the 346-page report by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics, an independent watchdog group in Washington. Forty-four had relatives who lobbied or worked in government affairs. Twenty members dipped into their campaign coffers to help a relative who ran for office, and 14 made sure they charged interest when they were reimbursed for personal loans that they advanced to their own campaign committees.
A little-noticed House hearing recently admitted that Congress, wallowing in 10 percent approval ratings, was “broken” and needed to be “fixed.” No one said anything about ending the rampant bipartisan nepotism cushioning Capitol Hill careers.
If nothing else, the report is a measure of the creativity quietly at work in Congress when it comes to hearth and home. If only this could be applied to something other than achieving full employment in the halls of the Capitol."
  I just wonder how many of those 82 lawmakers are Demorats and most of the are RINO Republicans
I hear crickets chirping from the NYT.
