Jim DeMint: Welcome, Senate Conservatives - WSJ.com
This is about as clear as it gets...
Senator Jim DeMint recently wrote this and more in the Wall Street Journal:
"Washington operates on a favor-based economy and for every earmark, committee assignment or fancy title that's given, payback is expected in return. The chits come due when the roll call votes begin. This is how big-spending bills that everyone always decries in public always manage to pass with just enough votes.
But someone can't be bribed if they aren't for sale."
