Apparently, VP Joe Biden and I have become close friends the last couple of years. So close he calls me “Tom”. At least in the occasional emails I receive from him. We have never met or even spoken, but he seems to know me. While this is technically “spam” it sends tingles down my leg […]

Following the vote, Senate Republican Leader […]

There are many reasons to be “against earmarks.” Earmarks […]
