And they say there is NO money for Brain Injury Rehabilitation. Take a look at what we WILL pay for. Just think of how far THIS $35.4 million could do for research and rehabilitation of people with brain injuries. Then go to Sen. Coburn's site to see other foolishness.
This is from Sen. Coburn of OK on wasteful spending.
Despite a federal budget crisis, taxpayers will be cutting checks this year to both political parties that could ―help pay for the stages, confetti, balloons, food, and booze‖ for their political conventions.2 The funds that are used to cover the conventions come from the Presidential Election Campaign Fund (PECF).
This year each political party will receive a $17.7 million check that will pay a sizable portion of the convention costs. The PECF money will be distributed to each of the political convention committee‘s bank accounts.

Follow me on my daughter's journey to recovery after a sudden medically unexplained hypoxic brain injury, her 16 months of recovery, and her sudden cardiac arrest that eventually took her life. This is about my beloved Brenna and a mother's reflections while she was ill and after her loss. God has sent me on a journey to use her story to help and educate others. The opinions on this blog are based on 6000 hours spent with My Brenna over a 16 month period.
