The Federal Protective Service is responsible for security in federal buildings across the United States. Its budget is tight, and the ABC television affiliate in Phoenix did an investigation that found that many important federal buildings in Arizona and other Western states have never been inspected or assessed by FPS.

There is one building, though, where FPS has spent a great deal of time: Dianne Feinstein's $16 million house in San Francisco. In fact, Feinstein's home has been classified as a Level 3 federal facility. Perhaps it's only natural for the FPS to pay more attention to the security of Feinstein's house than to major, public federal buildings: as a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee, she helps determine the agency's budget.

I can see November 2 from my house!!!

Spread my work ethic, not my wealth.

Forget change, bring back common sense.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle
