Porkies II
Right-wing activists have blasted the GOP Congress' pork barrel spending. It'd be easier to take them seriously if so many of their leaders weren't in the bacon business themselves.

    I think it was Ben Franklin that said, the more they proclaimed their innocence, the faster we hid our silverware. These guys are all liars and crooks, the republicans exponentially more so than the democrats, and we'll be lucky to recover from this wholesale theft of the treasury in our lifetimes. I am sure some in congress are innocent of theft, perhaps even noble in their aspirations, but the fact is if they don't stand up every day and try to stop this robbery, the outcome is the same and their personal integrity makes not a whit of difference.
