LATHAM VOTES AGAINST THE UNEMPLOYED

It is really no surprise, but Rep. Latham voted against the Unemployment Compensation Extension Act of 2010. He can't say with a straight face that it was out of concern for the deficit, because he helped George Bush every step of the way in running up the huge debts we are saddled with today. Latham is still OK with deficit spending if it is to give tax breaks to the wealthy. But people who can't find work? Forget about it!
NO WONDER HE SIDES WITH WALL STREET!

It turns out that Tom Latham is the wealthiest of Iowa's congressional delegation, and he has millions in the bank holding company Green Circle Investments, Inc. No wonder Latham is so opposed to Wall Street reform! It's interesting that Green Circle had $2.4 million in TARP bailout money, the program that Latham has vehemently opposed. Our congressman must be the biggest hypocrite in the House.
