No Battery Plant For Hardin County, Kentucky. Mitch McConnell And Brett Guthrie Couldn't Deliver!

Senator Mitch McConnell, Senator Jim Bunning, Geoff Davis, Brett Guthrie, Hal Rogers and Ed Whitfield opposed the $787 billion stimulus that would fund projects like the battery plant. Well they won and Kentuckians lost.
Of course Anne Northup won't be without a high paying government job, Senator Mitch McConnell took care of her. Some folks believe Senator Mitch McConnell traded the Battery plant off to get his pal Anne Northup a plum job on the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission. Thanks Mitch!

WASHINGTON — In this, the year Democrats and Republicans alike rallied behind promises of greater government transparency, finding the Kentucky congressional delegation's federal funding requests for pet projects, or "earmarks," is a labyrinthine process that can try the patience of even the most intrepid watchdog.

Take the case of U.S. Rep. Hal Rogers, R-Somerset, whose 22-page request is buried several pages deep on his Web site. Readers must click on the "On the Issues" tab, then "Economic Development and Job Creation" and plow through an eight-paragraph biography that starts with his high school graduation in 1955 before being rewarded with a link to his 103 earmark requests. The document is downloaded sideways and is not searchable.

Sen. Sherrod Brown Cast The 60th Vote! Obama Can Sign The $787 Billion Economic Stimulus Plan Into Law. Yes!!

James Pence Videos

Last night Sen. Sherrod Brown returned from his mother's memorial services to cast the decisive 60th vote needed to send the $787 billion economic stimulus plan to President Barack Obama.
Many of us remember when Senator Sherrod Brown was running for a seat in the House of Representatives and he pledged not to accept his free government health care until everyone in the United States had the same luxury. (He's still waiting). This guy is a leader!

It's a shame that Kentucky's Mitch McConnell, Jim Bunning, Ed Whitfield, Brett Guthrie, Geoff Davis and Hal Rogers have decided  to walk in goose step  lockstep with the Republican  Minister of  Public Enlightenment and Propaganda, Rush Limbaugh, rather than reach their full potential as leaders like Sen. Sherrod Brown.

The Most Reverend Congressman Ron Lewis and his Kentucky Congressional pals Hal Rogers and Ed Whitfield bet on Mitt Romney and  lost in Iowa last night.
Ron's Wife Kayi Lewis, Co Chair For Ernie Fletcher's re election campaign received a ass kickin' last November.
These folks are out of touch with reality and it's really beginning to show.
I'll bet ol Preacher Ron is ready for a long tall drink of some of that liquor lobby booze tonight.
BTW if you want to buy a house Ron Lewis has his house for sale for about $250,000 more than what I think it's worth and that's a conservative, no pun intended, guess.
