Bob the Blue Light special
People sometimes joke that First District Congressman Bob Bishop is a wholly owned subsidiary of Energy Solutions. Boy, are they wrong.ES3 (Engineering and Software Systems Solutions) owns a big chunk of Bishop, giving him one in every six of his campaign dollars.
And Bob earns it. Bishop regularly supports earmarks—those things John McCain hates so much — for a federal program that is highly profitable to ES3.
Between that and doing nothing to stop radioactive waste from coming to Utah — Energy Solutions runs an N dump in Utah — Bishop makes out OK.
By the way, in a recent debate Bishop clarified that he doesn't take money from these companies, that would be illegal. He takes money from people who work for the companies.
The Tribune's Matt Canham breaks down Bishop's financing and it is hideous to look upon.

Glen,
What if we paid you guys to do at least one negative story on Matheson?
Or is Matheson so pure that there is nothing to ding him on?
Umm....
His name is ROB, not BOB.
