Their pork bad, your pork good?
Is it pork when you are being forced by Washington DC to spend money you do not want to spend because they mandated you spend that money? I think not. It is pork when they allocated money to study the sex habits of the titsi fly... certainly you can tell the difference.. the former doesn’t get any funding the latter does. IF a senator doesn’t do anything for the people who elected him, what good is that senator? Either his responsibility to fight the mandate (he didn’t) of fight to help fund that mandate (he didn’t — Kyl did and McCain had it killed)....
Their earmarks are "pork." Our earmarks are "a vital investment in needed infrastructure improvements."
