Real Oversight

The Press-Enterprise has a post up titled "Private perks?" about the need for real, toothy oversight of Congress and their "ethics".
The ethics committee's decision was an indictment of the rules, not an exoneration of Dodd and Conrad. And while adding a mortgage disclosure rule would not end official corruption, it would help the public answer the first question in any legislative analysis: Who benefits?
"Who benefits?" is an excellent question to ask your Congressional Representative when they talk about Obamacare and never mention that they and other federal employees will be exempt from Obamacare in both the Senate and House versions.

Hmmmmm.
