How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

How about an earmark of couple hundred million for the US mint to buy new printing presses so they can keep up with all the spending Obama and the Dems want to do?
The current presses are going to wear out soon

when evidence is brought to the ethics committee that suggests that there may, in fact, be a quid pro quo situation with a legislator and a lobbyist concerning a particular earmark, investigate it completely. To suggest that a mandatory full blown ethics committee investigation be undertaken for each and every earmark is wasteful.

so Elmer...tell me... do YOU think that every single earmark in every single piece of legislation submitted to the House of Representatives should REQUIRE its own separate mandatory House Ethics Committee Investigation to ascertain whether any quid pro quo might exist between some lobbyist and the legislator who submitted it, or do you think that those investigations should only be undertaken when there is reason to suspect wrongdoing?Names can be changed, but not old habits

What earmarks and what pork? Obama and Pelosi PROMISED there would be no pork or earmarks in the stimulus bill, and Dems would reduce pork. So by your logic how can their be hearings into something that does not exist?

Virgil, your leaders said there would be no pork in the so called stiimulus bill, and they would reduce pork
I guess it depends on the what the meaning of "promise" and "pork" is

I guess you can't answer a simple question about the topic of this thread.
Why even post in it if you have no intention of addressing it?

At a time when the dollars are so valuable it seems to me that the pork should not be there to begin with. Is it so damn impossible that we could just spend on what we are suppose to and stop wasting the taxpayers hard earned dollars. Maybe if Congress started a practice like this they might experience a change in the confidence of more people and start making some progress in actually doing the job they were hired to do.......... by the people who they are suppose to be doing it for!
Did this ever occur to anyone?

Give Obama time and the dollar will be nearly worthless. Obama's "shitload" of economic experience tells him, all he has to do is keep the printing presses at the US Mint running 24/7 and there will be plenty of money to pay for his socialist agenda
