According to President Obama it was about creating jobs. Then it was about creating jobs and saving jobs. Then it was just about saving jobs. Now it is about buying time. God know what it will be about next year this time.
already flip flopping on earmarks. Top GOP senator flips on proposal to ban earmarks - Yahoo! News rand paul did the same thing.
That's not exactly true. He really wanted to "rename" them essentially. Most of what you hear on the mainstream is the twisting of words to fit agendas because they aren't smart enough to actually figure **** out. At the end of the day either your earmark the money or it goes back to the administration to do whatever they want with it. So earmarking is good so we know who did what with how much. The argument should be made to get rid of this money or pay down debt with it.
B/c most people are stupid like McCain. He uses the symbolism of Earmarks to stir up the masses but in reality we are talking about peanuts.
