Piggie of the Week, 2/1/2012: AP Ticker’s Psychedelic Awakening
As you may know, it is the “Year of the Bible” in Pennsylvania, thanks to unanimous support, from republicans and demmocrats alike, for a resolution introduced by Rep. Rick Saccone.

Open Letter #2: Senator Casey, Why Did You Vote Against Pennsylvania’s Infrastructure?
Senator Casey:
As I have discussed in previous emails and calls to your office, your decision to support the president’s extension of the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans was a bad idea. I did not know that it actually endangered Pennsylvania residents however: why did you, a senator whose state is plagued with crumbling [...]
