What were our righties saying about pork?
Quote:

With the country's economic fate, and that of hundreds of thousands government employees and their dependents, hanging in the balance, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell made sure to extract his pound of flesh. The bill he crafted with Majority leader Harry Reid includes a nice piece of pork for McConnell's pet project at home, a Kentuck state dam. The allocation is said to be about $3 million. http://www.alternet.org/news-amp-politics/mitch-mcconnell-made-sure-in
