MarkusQ writes "A few days ago a bi-partisan bill (PDF) to create a searchable on-line database of government contracts, grants, insurance, loans, financial assistance, earmarks and other such pork was put on 'secret hold' using a procedure that does not appear to be mentioned in the Constitution or in the Senate bylaws. This raised the ire of bloggers left and right and started an all out bi-partisan effort to expose the culprit by process of elimination. As it turns out it was our old friend the right honorable Senator from Alaska, Mr. 'Series of Tubes', Ted 'Bridge to Nowhere' Stevens."

Pork is just jobs for Americans, and is no problem at all. The real problem is that taxes are taken out of property and income instead of directly from the FED for the crime of printing money.

Alaska, home of oil, Republicans, Internet hatred, the biggest snow jobs in the country. Maybe we could send all these Republicans there for freezedrying.
