p> Jed Babbin is right! House Republicans should turn the ethics committee loose on John Murtha and his lobbyist brother. If we're going to "clean up" the lobbying "scandal" let's practice some bipartisanship. The time has come for Republicans to live by a new political creed -- politics is civil war without the bloodshed. Run up the black flag and take no prisoners. America's future is at stake. br> -- Michael Tomlinson br> Crownsville, Maryland /p> p> GOOD RIDDANCE, TOM br> Re: The Prowler's The DeLay Sweepstakes : /p> p>Tom DeLay and his wife need to get real jobs, instead of getting bribed by corrupt lobbyists at the expense of the American taxpayer, who slaves away to keep him and his wife in comfort and power. He and his wife should work at Wal-Mart or fast food restaurants, where they can see for themselves the effort that goes into earning a living, only to see much of it taken away in taxes to fund pet projects and the interests that control Congress. DeLay should be forced to answer the phones of confused seniors trying to navigate through the new Medicare prescription plan, fill out regulatory paperwork inflicted on businesses and figure out the business, tax and health insurance forms that he and his fellow Congressmen have given the average person to do. A stint in the bureaucracies he and his ilk have created would be a sobering wake-up call to the power-hungry, ego-driven Congressmen, who should be ashamed of themselves as Republicans. At least now he'll have more time to devote to stopping the invasion of illegal aliens -- ha ha. br> -- Caroline Miranda br> North Hollywood, California
