Here’s the database you all have been waiting for - the FY 2009 Omnibus with 8,570 earmarks worth $7.7 billion. Since the Senate started debate on the bill today, we tabulated the Senate recipients of earmarks – from top to bottom. So you’ll find the Mississippi delegation at the head of the pack followed by the Louisiana delegation hot on their heels.

You can look at what each Senator has asked for in this spending bill. 6 Republicans are in the top 10. It is in an excel spread sheet. I hope this is ok:-)
