I read the article in the link. If my congressional representatives did not go to Washington and return some of the money to my state I’d replace them. It is shameful to label such activities negatively. For example, I would never want McCain as my senator, he does not bring anything back to his state.
Hillary outperformed Obama by a three to one margin. That’s a lot of good jobs that she created for New Yorkers. She has almost a 70 per cent approval rating in New York as a result. When her advocacy moves to the national constituency we all benefit.
Yeah, but the amount isn’t important-what are the actual earmarks for? That’s the story
and no mention of Obama saying pregnancy is a punishment just like a STD.
Makes me wonder why Senator Clinton doesn’t want to release her earmarks . . . why would she not want us all to see all the “good work” she did for the great state of New York?
Oh well, at least she is going to finally release her tax returns in 14 days . . . or so she says . . .
it is easy to mock earmarks such as olive fruit flies. However, that is borne out of shear ignorance. See link below. There is a real threat to olive orchards in CA from these specific fruit flies. I think the money is well spent. the fact that France is involved has more to do with the fact that they have learned to regulate the olive fruit fly and save their crops from devastation.
I don’t have time to look into each earmark, and there are admittedly so many, but the above one is money well spent.
You know geevil, the real punishment is watching “the Clintons” continue to lie, and their supporters pretend like they don’t notice. To each his or her own I suppose.
You know geevil, its funny how little the Clinton campaign has to offer America. They just seem to move from wedge issue to wedge issue and hope for the best . . . so I guess it “baby punishment” week, huh?
Good luck with that.
To the Obama supporters,
Obama will not win
the White House against Mccain
without Florida and Michigan
Obama will not win
the White House against Mccain
without the Hillary Clinton Supporters
Obama will not win…

Obama’s a baby is a punishment statement is consistent with his vote to allow the killing of a live birth.
Casey won’t be able to save him in PA.
