and lindsay graham too. All three are not worthy of respect and they are all men who i once did have great respect for. They have become the old guard and all three end up as reactionaries and political opportunists. Yup. And then there is Shelby of ALA.

Sen. Shelby of ALA is fighting the bailout even as the largest county in ALA, home to Birmingham, gets ready to file bankruptcy. Go figure the insanity! Wall Street takes county to woodshed In the mid-90's Alabama's Jefferson County issued $3 billion in bonds to pay for a new sewer system.
