Since Robin now feels it’s necessary to throw her brother Russ under the bus to win an election, we thought we’d help her by highlighting Russ’s profligate spending with an excerpt from a 2008 post:

“Carnahan, who was elected in 2004, has managed to pass two bills while in Congress; an arterial road in Jefferson County and the renaming of a post office that’s 250 miles away in – Kansas City!

Does Robin also believe that people who oppose Obamacare are “attack[ing] our representative form of government?”
