Dodd Just Gets Dodd-ier Every Day

Anyone would be hard-pressed to find a worse example of how diseased the US Senate has become than Chris Dodd:

Back in July, Senator Chris Dodd, D-Conn., proposed an amendment reducing aviation security appropriations by $4.5 million in favor of firefighter grants -- a notoriously inneffective program. In fact, the money was specifically "for screening operations and the amount for explosives detection systems." The amendment was also sponsored by Sen. Lieberman, D-Conn., and Sen. Carper, D-Del., but Dodd deserves to be singled out here because the firefighters union is a pet constituency of his.

Blind slavery to labor unions screws normal Americans once again. Dodd cannot be put out of work soon enough.
