FRESNO, Calif. (AP) — Democratic Congressman Dennis Cardoza, whose growing dislike for Washington politics was a factor in his decision not to seek re-election, announced Tuesday that he won't even finish out his term.
The representative serving Modesto, Stockton and Merced cited problems with his teenage children as the reason for stepping down as of midnight on Wednesday.

Cowboy Wisdom for both conventions..............



If you don’t have much to say, don’t take an hour to prove it.


After eating an entire bull a mountain lion felt so good he started roarin’. He kept it up until a hunter come along and shot him. The moral? When you’re full of bull keep your mouth shut.
If you want to have a drink or two that’s all right, but don’t wear out the soles of your boots on a brass rail.


You can’t weigh the facts if you’ve got the scales loaded down with your opinion.


If you’re ridin’ ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it’s still followin’ you.

Democrat Used Taxpayer Money For Fancy Clothes And Spa Treatments-For Her Poodle
Via The Mental Recession:
Late this past summer, Shirley Huntley (D-Queens) took the rare step of holding a press conference to announce that she expected to be arrested in the coming days.
Sure enough, Huntley was arrested and charged with evidence tampering, conspiracy in the fifth degree, and falsifying business records. At her booking and fingerprinting, Huntley commented that she was “having a great day”.

Somebody however, saw this as a very bad day, as it meant an end to their taxpayer funded binge at upscale spas, an end to high-end fashion displays, and an end to a lavish lifestyle for the rich and famous.
That somebody was Huntley’s poodle.

Via the New York Post:

“Looting lawmaker Shirley Huntley loaded up on fancy clothes and spa treatments — and that was just for her pet poodle.

The former state senator, who admitted stealing taxpayer cash for shopping sprees, took along her BFF, Assemblywoman Vivian Cook, to go bargain hunting at the Tanger Outlets mall in Riverhead, LI, a source said.
The duo would use half a tank of gas to get to the mall, home to upscale outlets including Barneys, Saks Fifth Avenue and Coach.
The ladies also favored Lord & Taylor, and Huntley wasn’t just buying for herself — she made sure her white poodle was well dressed, the source said.”

Huntley pled guilty earlier in the month to embezzling nearly $90,000 in taxpayer money to a non-profit founded by her daughter.

Cook (D-Jamaica) meanwhile, has not been charged, despite state records indicating she steered $164,000 to the same organization.
