Default Senate quashes grant for Woodstock museum

Senate quashes grant for Woodstock museum

McCain is good publicity for blasting this. Hillary and Schumer of course want it funded:

Clinton and her New York colleague, Sen. Charles Schumer, had the funding inserted into the $604 billion education and health spending bill. The Woodstock project's main backer, Alan Gerry, is a registered Republican who recently became a major contributor to the Schumer-led Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.

Nine days after the "earmark" was placed in the bill in June, Gerry and his wife contributed the maximum of $9,200 to Clinton's primary and general election campaign funds. The Gerry family contributed an additional $20,000 to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, USA TODAY reported Wednesday.



You give me a $1,000,000, I'll give you ~$30,000.

It appears that a Hillary presidency will be a presidency that is available to those special interests that cough up the bucks.
