    A bunch of conservative bloggers and a handful of GOP politicians tried to end wasteful earmark spending when the Repubs were in power?

    And among the main targets were Trent Lott and Ted Stevens?

    And Don hooted about runaway spending under GOP controlled Senate and House?

    And Pelosi promised to shine a light on it, first thing she got through, in fact..

    Well it was all a sham... John the despicable cretin Murtha said at the time, pork reform was a bunch of crap... and it seems most in the house and senate agree.

    It lasted about 100 days

    Now it's worse than ever because the Dems are going to make sure no one sees the earmarks until the bills are passed.
