They forgot to mention he won the lottery

Spivak & Bice hate something more than blogs: Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner's money.

U.S. Rep. F. James Sensenbrenner is a rich guy who knows the secret of staying that way:

Never pick up the tab.

Fortunately for the Menomonee Falls Republican, there are plenty of lobbyists and special interests out there willing to pay for his frequent jaunts.

Now, I think criticism of the lobbyist paid trips is fair game, but what the hell does Sensenbrenner's personal wealth have to do with the issue? Would Spivak & Bice think it okay if the politician is poor? Middle class? Earning as much as two trade-school trained columnists for a newspaper?
