I was reading this article the other day about a Republican Congressman voting against the extension of unemployment benefits and his brother being unemployed. I had thought about that previously because I have a brother who is quite the go getter and will probably run for something some day. How would I feel about this? Probably the same way as US House Republican Leader John Boehner's brother, that I wouldn't want him voting for programs that aren't paid for, even though it would hurt.
Then again, I'd expect my politically connected brother to hook me up, or I'd pull a Billy Carter on him.
