How did he get that name? Seems like the libs put it on him to deflect attention from the conservatives labeling Murtha as the Prince of Pork?
I will grant that Hal has brought $$ to Kentucky but can you cite examples where he has 'pissed' away our money?
You need to do some research for yourself. Google, Answers, Yahoo, Wikipedia
Pork is swapping taxpayer dollars for campaign cash. Understand how it works? Use the pork to make your constituents happy so they’ll contribute their cash to your re-election campaign. The happier a corporation is with your pork the more cash you can expect from them. And the best part is you aren’t spending a solitary dime of your own money!
That’s how a politician gets to spend a lifetime time sucking on the taxpayers tit. Living high on the hog spending our money. I don’t admire politicians. Respect very few of them. Most of them are attorneys with a gift for gag who have no conscience when it comes to repeatedly lying.
