"(Tuesday, October 16 2012) Senator Coburn on FOX & Friends introducing his fourth annual oversight report highlighting some of the year's most wasteful government spending and abuse of your tax dollars. The report details 100 accounts of taxpayer dollars being used on things like Moroccan pottery classes, Cupcakes stores, specialty pet shampoo and more examples of questionable spending by the federal government totaling nearly $19 billion."
From Senator Tom Coburn
Senator Tom Coburn and I probably don't agree on any of the social issues, except for maybe civil liberties. But Senator Coburn is a real fiscal Conservative and does an excellent job when it comes to pointing out government waste.

There was a point in my lifetime (all 38 years of it) when the Republican Party was the party of fiscal responsibility and fiscal conservatism. Now they just talk like fiscal Conservatives when there's a Democratic President, especially with a Democratic Congress or a Congress where the Democratic Party is at least in control of the House and Senate. But Senator Coburn has always been in fiscal Conservative, including his whole career in Congress. And is one of the true fiscal Conservatives in Congress today.
