Waste, Fraud, Abuse

Check out my post on PolySigh for a beaut of an example of how House Republicans are often quick to highlight waste, fraud, and abuse when it involves authorizing money for a program designed to help ordinary Americans though relatively uninterested in corporate greed. While one Georgia Republican thought housing for Katrina victims was a good place to balance the budget, Mississippi Democrat Gene Taylor strongly disagreed. The post also contains a YouTube of one of the most entertaining floor fights on the House in the aftermath of Rep. Taylor's remarks.
