So?

It is an old politican trick. If you keep the sheeple busy point fingers at the opposition, you can slip through things without their notice.

[Ever notice how 'friendly' the pols are to each other, even of the so-called opposition? Behind closed doors, they are more buddy-buddy than opposition. Notice that, when the Dems are in charge, the Pubbies still get a share of the pork; when the Pubbies were in control; the Dems got a share of the pork. One hand washes the other.]

It is more difficult to push through those secret pork bills now, since the Internet make the raw information available.
