The Pork In The Bailout Bill - What Senators Requested These Outlays?,,,,,,,
MSNBC is talking about children's wooden arrows; rum in Puerto Rico/Virgin islands,etc - were these put in to garner Repug votes or Dem votes?

McCain talks about embarrassing those that get the pork or request the pork - is there anywhere we can check for this?

2. I'm sure we will find both parties involved, probably more repub.
But what if they are majority dem requests, does that make it ok?
If it's crap, it's crap regardless of who asked for it. Let's be intellectually
honest and call it bs whoever asked for it. Anything less is partisan political
manure and shows that concern is not for the good of the country but the good
of the individual or party.
