Politicians - Sen. Jay Rockefeller
I've read a lot of things about Sen. Rockefeller and haven't found much to like about him.
This article just adds to that opinion...

In his New Media Journal article, Paul R. Hollrah begins with a little biography:
"Senator John Davison Rockefeller IV, otherwise known as “Jay” Rockefeller, is a four-term member of the U.S. Senate from West Virginia and a great-grandson of oil tycoon John D. Rockefeller. He is the youngest in a long line of prominent politicians and financiers, including former Vice President Nelson A. Rockefeller, former Arkansas Governor Winthrop Rockefeller, and. banker David Rockefeller. The only Democrat in what has always been a staunchly Republican family, he is also the son-in-law of former Republican Senator Charles H. Percy, of Illinois.
Rockefeller currently serves as Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, a position he held from 2002-03, and one he reclaimed when Democrats regained Senate control in 2006."
