It sounds like some of the chapters in the Bush book are quite frank. The Hillbilly Report also talks about ear marks.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is maneuvering behind the scenes to defeat a conservative plan aimed at restricting earmarks, setting up a high-stakes showdown that pits the GOP leader and his "Old Bull" allies against Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) and a new breed of conservative senators.
Rightardia predicted this would happen. Only .5 per cent of the federal budget pertains to ear marks and no politician in their right mind would give them up. These projects bring home the bacon to the home districts. We suspect that the Tea Bag Senator DeMint, will lose this battle.
