Outgoing Secretary of the Interior Dirk Kempthorne has spruced up the office bathroom for the incoming Secretary of Interior Ken Salazar. Kempthorne authorized $235,000 in renovations.
The renovations included new plumbing, which did need to be replaced. Of course, a new shower came with the work. Other work included wainscot wood paneling from floor to the ceiling. Also included in the bathroom work was a cabinet holding a new refrigerator and freezer.
Yes, that is a fridge and freezer in the bathroom. I don’t know anyone who has a fridge and freezer in their bathroom. Beyond sounding bizarre, what is the necessity for all this?
One more thing Kempthorne ordered some monogrammed towels.
With a bathroom like that, who needs the office?

Why doesn’t Congress watch this stuff? What do we pay them for in ever-increasing amounts…$4,700 raise this year to Congress automatically–yet they do a worse and worse job each year.
