Fiscal Conservative Teanut Baggers zany over expensive cars on your dime

Statement of Disbursements - United States House of Representatives, 112th Congress, 1st Session

Since 2009 the SOD has been published online to increase governmental transparency and accountability. (thanks Obama)
As a result of a new House financial system, all SODs from the fourth quarter of 2010 onward will display new transaction codes while maintaining the same data transparency as before. These codes (AP for Accounts Payable; AR for Accounts Receivable and GL for General Ledger) will replace all previously used SOD transaction codes. More »

Seven Tea Party Freshmen Spent More Than $100,000 In Taxpayer Money On Personal Cars

Wow. And they held America hostage on "fiscal conservatism".

 

In truth, I don't give a shit. Equinoxes are relatively cheap vehicles that get fairly OK gas mileage. But it does kind if fly in the face of their "we consider public service a SERVICE to the public, not to ourselves" thing. If they really felt that way....they're making enough money to buy their own dammed cars...but really? It's small potatoes.

 

Trolls don't know how to use the SEARCH FUNCTION

what a friggen WASTE

 

Eat shit troll

 

Typical of the teabaggers, they are nothing but a bunch of america hating idiots.

 

So what did they actually spend the money on? Because those are fairly good prices on cars.

Are they renting? Buying on behalf of the government? leasing?

Because depending on how they are spending the money, that could be a reasonable price.

 

It is good. Too good. That's the problem.

 

That really doesnt address any of my questions.

 

You're right those gay groups that like to teabag each other are socialist american hating groups, I'm glad you realize that.

What's the OP's f*ckin' problem?

I'll tell you what his problem is: He's the typical lazy assed Liberal who lives off of being spoon fed propaganda. He's a lazy Liberal who can't even do his own research THAT'S what his problem is.

So blind with partisan hatred that he doesn't even see that he's being played.

"Helicopter" Ben Bernanke loaned out 7.7 Trillion dollars to foreign Banks and what does rderp get upset about? What he's TOLD to get upset about THAT'S what!

What a f*ckin' moran!
