Now I personally love pork but the kind you eat not the kind Congress loves , anyway Citizens Against Gov't Waste has their annual pork barrel spending report out. It is disappointing that GOP Sen Thad Cochran was the overall fattest pig at the trough, but the interesting part is the POTUS candidates of course. Both Barack and Hillary talk about fiscal responsibility while proposing untold billions in new programs but both did well in getting their share from the trough. Hillary had the most, 281 at a $296 mil price tag, Barack had 53 for $97 mil and Sen McCain has never requested one.
Matt Lewis has more and Michelle stays on her tear about the housing bailout.
I heard about this on Fox News yesterday. Some of those pork barrel projects are totally ridiculous! It says a lot that McCain hasn't requested any in comparison to Hillary and Obama.
