Very nice!

If Owhorama wins I&#039;m done with Federal Income Taxes. This is the only lever we have (short of armed conflict)that will send a clear message to these pigs in DC.</description>

The reason PA needs so much pork is because they have been ruled by liberal democrats for thye last 30 years and most businesses have fled the state. thus to keep up any type of industry the federal gov needs to subsidize PA. Same is true for San Fransico and NYC.

Pork covers the failures of libberalism.

This would be a huge part of it, and I say that as someone who has lived in PA all my life.  I know good conservatives who voted for Meuser over Chris Hackett in the primary because Hackett made a no pork pledge, Meuser said &quot;bring on the pork!&quot;  Hopefully Hackett can beat Carney, this is a very conservative district and there&#039;s no reason we can&#039;t take this seat back.

PA is the second oldest state in the nation next to Florida, and the biggest reason is that so younger people and families move away because there aren&#039;t many jobs in-state...this is doubly true for college-educated people(of which I&#039;m one).  The reason for that is because of liberal economic policy, regulations and high taxes that punish businesses, so much of our growth is based on government funding.</description>

Thank you for that link.  Funny thing is, in BO&#039;S district that he was in charge of. Is living in squalor. They let camera people in their apartments. Most of them were very clean inside. But the rats, roaches, leaking pipes and broken windows. They don&#039;t want Obama to win.  The poor might get a check. But once a year? And with all the poor, it won&#039;t be that much. I will be damned if I am going to pay for trash like that.  Granted there are people that need help. Not with my dollar.  A lot of the poor don&#039;t want to do anything. Selling drugs is easy money for them. McCain has to win!</description>

		<description>Give Pelosi a fish  and she makes an earmark out of it. Try and teach Pelosi to fish and she complains that it steals jobs from other fishermen.</description>

		<description>Dear Ms Pelosi,

So the fisheries get a &#039;best year&#039; check. Does this mean my next stimulus check will be a &#039;best year&#039; check also?

Your party wants to help the little guy, right?

Sincerely,

The same &quot;team&quot; that tries to sell us on how they&#039;ll cut spending in the billions defends silly spending in millions. How can Obama et al ever get to the &quot;billions&quot; in savings when they defend the entire earmark process?

		<description>I could understand a debate on whether or not taxpayer dollars should go to help out distressed industries.  Personally I oppose such measures in general, but am willing to leave such things up to the democratic process. However, with earmarks there isn&#039;t even a debate or vote.  It is just a bunch of pigs slyly picking our pockets. 

We need Gov. Palin to go to Washington and field dress Congress.</description>

		<description>The reason PA needs so much pork is because they have been ruled by liberal democrats for thye last 30 years and most businesses have fled the state.  thus to keep up any type of industry the federal gov needs to subsidize PA.  Same is true for San Fransico and NYC.
