WDT: Lawmakers Hand Out Pints of Whiskey

   Walking around money has been a part of politics for years...Go to the days of the ward healers handing out a little cash (or maybe some spirits) to the needy in exchange for their loyalties at the polls.
    State lawmakers have walking around money....but its our money and its called "bullet aid". Little hand outs of 15, 20, 30 or 50 thousand dollars to school districts.
     It's a miniscule amount to the districts, but it makes for a good press release.

Like that 30k patty got for women last week? No wonder they can afford to build that place over by Pete's? They build it with free money. If it were a business they would have found a place to rehab much cheaper. And it would have been pretty nice too but not luxurious like this place.
