This may sound like a stupid question, I know that in full. I had to laugh a bit about the word 'Porculus' and have more than a hunch by now what it refers to. But can you kind folks enlighten me a bit more (its history, for instance, and why of all animals the swine has been chosen)? 
I know, I know, I could have chosen Google etc. etc. 
I simply thought it better to ask it right here.

    Actually, I believe it was Rush Limbaugh that coined the phrase on his show.

    Porkulus is the big, big, big spending bill that, in the months to come, will be followed by Son of Porkulus, Bride of Porkulus, Revenge of Porkulus, and Porkulus Eats Manhattan.

    Roman, friends, country men lend me your pork. I have come to praise Porkulus not to bury him.
