Aside from the obvious problems with a Senator apparently charging people for breakfast, lunch, and dinner dates with him during the months of September and October (while Congress is in session), it is also interesting to note that, recently, Mr. Vitter has publicly attacked his opponent, Congressman Charlie Melancon, for raising money out of state.

,,,and your surprised?
Not really.
Hmmmmm…
See second :41 with Mr. Melancon’s head superimposed over a guy golfing with (gasp!) an African American man, immediately followed by the phrase “liberal loving, Obama endorsing Congressman,” followed by Mr. Melancon with Mr. Obama? My first impression is that this video has some certain kind of nasty overtones…
Am I wrong for this or just looking to deeply?
