It’s no fun to own the pork, is it?
Well, it seems some Democrat interest groups, like MoveOn.org and the Service Employees International Union, are running ads to pressure Republican senators to vote for the $825 Billion dollar boondoggle. It doesn’t matter that it won’t work, just pass it. I’m sure they get a lot of time in the slop if it does, since 30% of the bill is earmarks and the rest is either special interest payoffs, state bailouts, or junk.
As far as I’m concerned, they can go squealing to someone who cares, and suggest that the Senate Republicans follow the House’s example. They’re not going to want to own this one when the inflation starts and the payment comes do on this massive epic fail.
