Area Members of Congress Show Hypocrisy

Two area members of Congress are in the news demonstrating hypocrisy and a lack of principle.
First, on the Democratic side of the aisle, Debbie Wasserman Schultz refuses to release any of her tax returns after criticizing Mitt Romney for not releasing more than two years of his own.
And on the GOP side, Allen West flip-flops on federal regulation of farms that produce eggs. If he was really a Tea Party guy he’d understand that this is not a federal issue. Instead he’s blowing in the wind of whatever district he represents and who’s giving him campaign contributions.
Not much from West Boca’s own Ted Deutch, but he did take part in the very important congressional resolution congratulating the Miami Heat. And one of his opponents criticized him for a website mistake.
