It would seem as if Rep. Mike Castle is pretty good at the political game of earmarks. He has sponsored or co-sponsored fifty-one earmarks totaling $51,874,600 for the fiscal year of 2010. This number gets him a ranking of 43rd out of 435 representatives.That puts him in the top ten percent of earmark spending. Now theres something to be proud of.

I literally live down the street from Cokesbury and had not heard of this. Delawareans need to know, in advance, of these meetings. It is difficult to be monitoring the candidates’s websites all day. Use the private reply or state board.
We need to ask:
1. What laws doe get to break?
2. Why did we need DeathCare when HIPPA and CHIPRA do the same thing?
3. How about We the people tell you what we want?
4. Why won’t Washington listen?
5. Why can’t politicians answer questions without a speech?
Excellent questions.
Many have been asking them but the answers always seem to be the standard political sidestepping babble.
Amazing that Castle has no time for a political debate with his opponent, but he seems to have no trouble scheduling events to save kittens with the SPCA or safety meetings about kids in too hot cars - all covered by the press, but he hides from the questions from ‘We The People’ - his employers!
