Thank you, Lansing State Journal

I have taken my share of "hits" from the Lansing State Journal. Today, however, I must thank writer Derek Melot for a very positive write-up on his blog, http://noise.typepad.com/derek_melot/2007/09/another-front-o.html about my transparency bill.

Let's face it, this is not about partisanship, it is about good government. After all, the sponsors of the legislation at the federal level are widely regarded as perhaps the most liberal and most conservative members of the US Senate: Barack Obama and Tom Coburn.
