They have a great way of showing it, don't they? Party time for these people this weekend in Williamsburg chosen no doubt to sucker some Americans into showing how patriotic they are when in fact the colonial town is now filled with luxury spa resorts like the one they are partying and staying at this weekend at the posh Kingsmill Resort & spa on we American's last dimes since we're bankrupt, right?
The Washington Times had an Op ed along the same lines this morning:House Democrats Party Like Boom TimesThe Sleuth: House Democrats let it all hang out last night.
They danced, sang, drank and whooped it up at their annual retreat in Williamsburg until after midnight, forgetting, for a few hours at least, the misery of the free-falling economy, punctuated by the grim news that unemployment is hurling toward Great Depression levels.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) and Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (S.C.) danced together to a blues tune performed by Reps. David Obey (Wisc.) on harmonica and John Hall (N.Y.) on guitar, eyewitnesses tell the Sleuth.
Hall, of course, is "the" John Hall, the House Democratic Caucus's legitimate rock star who co-founded the band Orleans ("Still the One," "Dance With Me"target="_blank"). Obey and Hall were joined on stage by Rep. Frank Kratovil (Md.). The band usually includes folk singer Rep. Paul Hodes of New Hampshire, but he's off and running for the Senate to replace Sen. Judd Gregg (R-N.H.), President Obama's Commerce secretary nominee. continued
Democrat fat cats:
Washington Times - EDITORIAL: "There is a well-known adage in the nation's capital that many politicians come pledging to reform the cesspool but soon join the hot tub. And so did many Democrats - literally jumping into a hot tub at a three-day retreat that President Barack Obama briefly attended (probably not long enough to literally join the hot-tub gang). The Democratic House Caucus retreat was held this weekend at a Williamsburg luxury spa, to the cost of half a million dollars for the American taxpayer, and Mr. Obama flew the 155 miles on Air Force One (after getting to Andrews AFB by Marine One) for a brief appearance." continued
