It’s not up to Republicans to follow through, guys. The money’s already appropriated.

It’s up the the Defense Department how to allocate it, and if the porks’ going to get the axe, it’s the DOD that will wield it.

John McCain Grunts, Groans, and Strains like an Elephant, but sh*ts like a gnat.

I stole that from a friend of mine

Ooh! My opinion of McCain just went up a number of points.

He went up 5 points in my McCain personal approval rating.

He now stands at 5 percent.

I hope they have the Malkins to react in this way. If the Republicans would happen to grow some Malkins and force their issues in these ways we’d do fine from here on out. It’d be about time.

Maverick….you magnificent son of a b!tch!

Gates should first target all crap that Murtha dumped and did not even have the guts to defend on the floor of the House.

If San Francisco is ever walled off, and either the president or his daughter crash land there, we could always send in Snake Plissken to the rescue!

After reading that sick article at the SF Gate (mentioned above), I think we should pull all the pork from SF, wall that city off and not let anyone in or out.

I love the letter, but unfortunately, the GOP doesn’t have the backbone to follow through with it.

And if they don’t, then you make layoffs hit Democrat districts disproportionately

Start with cutting the defense contract given to Diana Feinstein’s husbands firms by difi .
As to their districts well its not like they support the military any way so why should the military support them .

As you develop contingency plans to keep funding available for the troops in harm’s way, we strongly urge you to cut unnecessary Congressional earmarks as your first source of funding.

ROFLMAO!!!!!

Right. Like they’ll really ever do that.
