Bringin' Home the Bacon

Check out Michelle Malkin where she has collected some information on the town that Jack Murtha built using pork barrel earmarks--over $600 million in the past four years alone. If you are from Murtha's district in Pennsylvania you probably love the iconic windbag. If you are from anywhere else, such as, say, rural northern Michigan, he represents the worst of what can go wrong when politicians are granted the authority to spend other people's money.

Congratulations Johnstown. Enjoy the rewards of my toil.
