That one misspelling is going to make for a golden thread. As far as content goes, the guy’s on record as admitting there were earmarks! How does this prick keep getting away with this kind of thing? It’s like saying “I never hit her and she really deserved it anyway.”

Here's a small sampling from The Porkfest (Prokfest?):

$1 billion for Amtrak (a/k/a The Post Office on Wheels. It hasn't turned a profit in 40 years)

$2 billion for child-care subsidies (thanks, but I'm already supporting my own kids).

$50 million for the National Endowment for the Arts (whatever would we do without it???

$400 million for global-warming research (during the coldest year in a friggin' decade)

$2.4 billion for "carbon-capture" demonstration projects. (that's like trapping farts under a blanket, only much, much more expensive).

$650 million (on top of the billions already doled out) to pay for even more digital TV conversion coupons. Honestly, Barack: Grandma's already bought a new set at Wal*Mart. It cost less than the damned coupon.
