Russ Carnahan Rubberstamps His Passport

Last year, Russ Carnahan headed off to the Great Barrier Reef, Hawaii, and Antarctica for some fun in the sun and snow.  

The year before, it was off to fabulous Portofino, Italy to stay at a swanky resort none of us could afford on European Union dollars.

Turns out the pride and joy of Missouri, 3rd District Congressman Russ Carnahan, has been a very bad boy.

Do you know how much you have to screw up to get your hand slapped by the New York Times?  If the New York Times thinks you're living large off lobbyist dollars, it's time to take the Tom Daschle route and start shopping for limos.

This chart shows Russ as the third worst offender when it comes to taking overseas trips.

Note - none of these trips have ever been talked about by Russ Carnahan, his website, or his communication directors.  Taking trips is a perk to the Carnahans, kind of like being handed congressional seats you're not qualified for.

russ is stressed out and has earned his time off! when he's not studying his talking points from pelosi, ACORN, and ECIU he's hiding under his desk from the folks! (and those big coloring books are getting harder, and harder!) let's throw russ under the bus next november, and don't forget robin, the boxer clone!
