Another one that makes me laugh--Our MT Congressman, who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and is the 14th richest in Congress- now is suing because there were not enough government services to protect his investment property- and he can't sell his ranchettes...
I love the comments from some of the firefighters (paid and volunteer) that fought the fire...Maybe old Denny should have used some of his $57+ million dollars worth of wealth to contract with a private wildlands service, instead of expecting everything from government- and now wanting the taxpayers to pick up the bill for the property he can't sell (which is more than likely just because of the economy and the continued effects of the Bush Bust)...
This is another Fatcat hypocrit that needs to take a hike in Nov...
