OUR TREASONOUS, CRIMINAL CONGRESS IS DOING OKAY

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article21114.htm Tough times: Congress Grew 13 Percent Richer In 2007 By Rob Hotakainen October 27, 2008 "McClatchy Newspapers" -- - WASHINGTON — Times are tough, but don't worry about most members of Congress making ends meet. Their collective wealth grew by 13 percent last year, leaving them in better shape than most Americans to make it through an economic downturn, according to a new analysis of personal financial reports. Overall, nearly two of every three senators are millionaires. That includes presidential candidates Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., and Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill. In the House, 39 percent of all members belong to the exclusive club. Only 1 percent of all Americans are considered millionaires.
