Ginny Loves Bush

Pushing Rope notes the percentage of the time Florida Republicans vote in line with President Bush, one of the worst presidents in American history. Not surprisingly, Ginny loves Bush:

2007 - 69%
2006 - 90%

Good Brown-Waite

It's nice to see Ginny on the right side of an issue for once:


Warning that she's no "sweet Southern belle,'' the Brooksville Republican laced into the Bush administration Thursday, accusing the administration of harboring a "bipartisan opposition to anything that's going to help homeowners."

The outcry came after a Treasury Department official said the White House would "strongly oppose" an effort to create a national risk pool aimed at cutting homeowners' insurance premiums. Brown-Waite, known for an independent streak, said the administration has stymied her efforts at a national risk pool.

"The administration's let them eat cake attitude does not help members on either side of the aisle,'' she said, causing a room full of dozing reporters, lobbyists and staffers to sit up and take notice.
