Information isnt Advocacy
Republicans will defend ANYTHING their toolie politicians do. If this had been, oh say, Nancy Pelosi bitching about her 174K salary, the right would be apoplectic about it.
You know, I'm one of those "bloated government workers" the right is always attacking. I am the sole supporter of a family of four, I live in Northern California and make considerably less than 174 thousand. My boss, an elected official, makes just about as much as this douche bag and my manager makes just slightly less than that (about $140K). Did their cost share of pension and benefits just go up? Nope, but mine did. My benefits cost share increased by 3% while they contribute NOTHING to their pensions and benefits (which they get for life...my benefits end when I retire). Are they being required to take a 2% pay cut in the form of a furlough day? Nope, but mine did and I have to take a full day without pay in the next two months.
Keep attacking "the little guy" and defending people like this. I'm sure it will serve ya'll well come the next election...
