Holy smokes, where are the thunderous calls for her resignation by the GOP?  I have not heard a thing about it. Why no outrage?  And Conan, Worldnutdaily?

What, are you kidding Tim?  Then the GOP would have to own up to all the little slush fund, special interest, and kick-back deals they have going on.

I just figure the Halliburton/Cheney crowd needed a little balance to their accusations.

"As chairperson and ranking member of the Military Construction Appropriations subcommittee (MILCON) from 2001 through the end of 2005, Feinstein supervised the appropriation of billions of dollars a year for specific military construction projects. Two defense contractors whose interests were largely controlled by her husband, financier Richard C. Blum, benefited from decisions made by Feinstein as leader of this powerful subcommittee."
