Continuing from the post below concerning the idiotic inbred attempt by Republicans to cast the omnibus spending package as filled with pork, Think Progress makes mention of nine GOP members of Congress who have piled pork into the very bill they are decrying. Top amongst them, as Political Correction makes note, is Sen. Roger Wicker from Mississippi. Wicker, all by his lonesome, has almost 200 earmarks in the bill totaling more than $415 million.
None of that stopped Wicker or his cohorts from going on Fox News the past two days and railing against a spending bill they have helped fatten, and in the case of Sen. Wicker, almost single handily.
