This article under Project Vote Smart (<a href="http://www.vote-smart.org/speech_detail.php?speech_id=147886&keyword=&amp;phrase=&contain">http://www.vote-smart.org/speech_detail.php?speech_id=147886&amp;keyword=&phrase=&amp;contain</a>) is an interesting look into the political spending that Senator Lugar puts forth. This specific article speaks of all the monetary returns that have been returned to taxpayers since Senator Lugar entereted the senate in 1977. In fact, last year he returned $275,000 dollars which brings his grand total to near an astonishing $4.5 million dollars over the course of his terms. This now ranks Senator Lugar first out of all members in congress over the issue of economic efficiency. <br /><br />That is the basic summary of the article revolving around Senator Lugar's spending during his term as a senator. In my humble opinion, I do believe it to be a very positive note to his character. The fact that he has been able to stay so highly ranked in financial spending and returns helps put taxpayers in Indiana at ease because they know their money is being well spent and not abused. It is definately a positive note for Senator Lugar and could play an important part in his re-election if he is lucky. The taxpayers already respect his work in this regard and will expect similar results which has become obvious that the senator can deliver. Once again, the link to the article is below.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.vote-smart.org/speech_detail.php?speech_id=147886&keyword=&amp;phrase=&contain">http://www.vote-smart.org/speech_detail.php?speech_id=147886&amp;keyword=&phrase=&amp;contain</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21472366-113849419619430261?l=dicklugarweekly.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>SilentJ714http://www.blogger.com/profile/04943351337576559482noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21472366.post-1138162509012580742006-01-24T22:13:00.000-06:002006-01-24T22:15:09.020-06:00Welcome to the blog of myself, Jonathan Dharamsy.
