Bill O'Rights

You're over thinking it, Host. This particular visit, by a Republican Vice President, is for a fundraiser to benefit a Republican candidate. No problem there. The problem is...why should tax payer money, a good portion of which was collected from non-Republicans, be used to pay for that visit?

Turn it the other way, a visit, by a Democratic Vice President, for a fundraiser to benefit a Democratic candidate...it's every bit as wrong.

Now...had the VP come to Grand Island to officiate the opening of a new swimming pool, or to discuss the War on Terror at the local Farmer's Co-Op...then fine. Grand Island should foot the bill. But not for a partisan fundraiser. I see it as a gross misuse of taxpayer money.
