They think Menominee, MI is within the Chicago metropolitan area, Toledo is near Ann Arbor, Albany is part of the Hartford area, Kingston and Pemberton, NJ are in New York City. Or, at least these are the conclusions they reached when they passed the new child health care bill. The Congressmen deliberately flunked geography as they wanted hospitals in their district to get more of our money, i.e., the money that goes to pay hospitals for Medicare patients.
And you thought that the Democrats would get rid of earmarks! We have a very serious problem in that there is no branch of government that you can admire as one containing a majority of competent, reasonably honest people who actually want to serve their country rather than themselves.
