Shameful
Rep. John Doolittle (R-CA) is one of four congressmen whom the Washington Post and Wall Street Journal have both named as being investigated for their ties to Jack Abramoff.
Doolittle has seats on two powerful committees for granting favors: the Committee on House Administration as well as the Appropriations Committee. He also holds the sixth highest ranking elected position in the House Leadership, the Secretary of the House Republican Conference.
Doolittle, a Mormon and "ardent opponent of casino gambling," was "particularly close to Abramoff," according to former Abramoff associates. Doolittle himself has admitted this.
Analysis-The previous blogger had a post about Rep. John Doolittle (R-CA) and I have to agree. A commenter speculated Aaron stopped blogging because Doolittle or one of his minions squashed the blog and Aaron capitulated. I hope that's not the case, regardless I will not make excuses for Doolittle or any politician that appears to be corrupted by power. I am a religious independent and I think for myself. If you can change my mind I will be a big enough man to admit I was wrong but don't hold your breath on that.

Whatever. You have a take and you're sticking to it (for now).
Doolittle long ago stopped serving the public good. It's time for a change.
LN-Not trying to replace RC since that's not possible. He is one of a kind but he left andif you ask why am I posting here? Because I can.
I have no agenda but time will tell.
