And the answer is...

Earmarks have increased from 1,439 of them in 1995 to 13,997 last year. Lobbyists have doubled in number during the past five years to more than 35,000!

Now here’s the Big Question: How long have the Republicans been in power? Did you say five years? You win!...and you lose, as usual.

  1. This just goes to show that power corrupts. That however does not discredit the ideology. When I was active in the party I actually believed in the ideology, however many of my fellow Republicans were GOP because their parents were GOP.

    That soured me from party politics.

  2. Also the Republicans have been in power since the midterm elections of 1994.
