HT: Government Bytes

The 2007 Citizens Against Government Waste Pig Book is now available, and my link to it has been updated. The good news is that Democrats have been cutting out Republican pork and haven’t had enough opportunity to lay in their pork yet. I have no doubts that it’s coming. :)

Congressional Pig Book Summary meet (sic) at least one of CAGW’s seven criteria, but most satisfy at least two:
  • Requested by only one chamber of Congress;
  • Not specifically authorized;
  • Not competitively awarded;
  • Not requested by the President;
  • Greatly exceeds the President’s budget request or the previous year’s funding;
  • Not the subject of congressional hearings; or
  • Serves only a local or special interest.

Ohio’s congressmen seems to have stayed off the main page this year, for once. :)
