"When Dirk Kempthorne took over as Secretary of the Interior in May 2006, he was appalled by the state of the interior... of his office bathroom. You see, it had no shower, refrigerator or freezer, vital staples of any adequate executive loo. Kempthorne took care of that. Al Kamen of the Washington Post reports that, at a cost of only $235,000 to the taxpayers, Kempthorne had the missing appliances installed and had enough money left over for some nice monogrammed towels."

Yes, I believe that $230,000 of my tax dollars was well spent, to allow Brownie (R) Dirk Kempthorne to take stylish craps as he schemed to sell America's beautiful legacy to the land-raping extractive Bush supporters.

The (R)'s just set a shining example of good government!
