“How the hell is a line item related to Starkist Tuna in American Samoa carved out just for them not an earmark for one of the major employers in Nancy Pelosi’s congressional district?”

Starkist- Isn’t that one of Pelosi’s husband’s businesses?
and WTH do rum producers get their beaks in the water every time there’s a big porker bill? Any word on the arrow makers getting another earmark?

—I remembered hearing something about that- I think you’re right.

“Any word on the arrow makers getting another earmark?”

—Ah, good old “Section 503- Exemption from excise tax for certain wooden arrows designed for use by children”...I’m guessing they’ll try to sneak it in there if it’s not already there.

I swear, any Repub that votes for this...

We’ve already seen that this doesn’t work.
