Not only that, but only 2 of the top 10 are GOP. So much for being party of the working man. The thing to remember about the Dems and their tax policies is that they want to tax people who are trying to get rich. Their money would be safe. The only conclusion I can come up with is that they want to it be a private club for them and they can tell the "little people" what to do.

It's because they make money.
BTW Fitzgerald, Edwards, Graham, and Corzine aren't Senators anymore. This is what happens when you copy & paste lists from 2002.

That's what makes them so smart. Now take a look at how many of them Democrankies married into it and you'll get a clearer picture. Can you use the word Wh*re on this site?

Because Democrats get rich before the join the Senate, while Republicans join the Senate so they can get rich.

Because Democrats enjoy taking hard-earned money out of YOUR wallet via taxing the heck out of you.
