Question: What does tax relief, health care, vietnam, and oil in the gulf of mexico have to do with each other?
Answer: Nothing!

I could find some press that documents this, but nothing that really questions the practice of inserting unrelated riders into legislation. Why? Because it’s not only common practice, it’s essential to DC activity.
