Remember that this is the woman who admitted that she carries a handgun for protection, although she would deny that right to tens of millions of Americans. And this is the woman, who, as the ranking member of a Senate panel that awards government contracts on behalf of the military, made sure that multi-millions of dollars of government contracts were funneled to her husband's business.
Now, it seems, the Senator is at it again:
On the day the new Congress convened this year, Sen. Dianne Feinstein introduced legislation to route $25 billion in taxpayer money to a government agency that had just awarded her husband's real estate firm a lucrative contract to sell foreclosed properties at compensation rates higher than the industry norms.
Mrs. Feinstein's intervention on behalf of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. was unusual: the California Democrat isn't a member of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs with jurisdiction over FDIC; and the agency is supposed to operate from money it raises from bank-paid insurance payments - not direct federal dollars.
Of oourse, never once has the ethically-challenged Senator been investigated by the Senate for corruption. Since 2006 her cronies have controlled Congress.

And yet the fools in the once wonderful state of CA. keep reelecting the bottom feeders. For those of you who live in CA. and possess two or more live brain cells, you have my sympathy. I live in OR. the great state made up of parks and reserves, 52 percent owned by the fed., Tax'em and gouge'em Teddy and the group up around Salem are doing their best to ruin us too.
She is just one of the un-holy triad from Californication.....
Feinstein, Boxer and Pelosi.
String 'em all up.
