Banks closing, millions of homes in foreclosure, a major recession; so what does the Democrat-controlled Congress do? They give every member an extra $93,000 in petty cash.

First off, in fairness Grim....congress would have voted in their raise no matter who controlled the house, dems or republicans.
Second, does it really suprise you? Its there way of saying a job well done! Could it have been stopped?

I thought bambam put a freeze on those raises?
But you're right, what idiot wouldn't vote to give themselves a raise.

You got it. It takes a act of congress to not give themselves a raise, how is that for job security? Its strange in a way, that this government is becoming exactly what it struggled to get away from. Entitlement.
