Obama is a liar. Plain and simple.

"We are going to ban all earmarks."
~President Barack H. Obama, about the spending bill

In reality, the bill contains about 9,000 earmarks, totalling about $7.8 billion. Thanks, Barry.

I'm having trouble expressing my frustration. So, I'll let Glenn Beck do it for me.

First, a little info for those of you who think that we can just raise taxes on the rich to solve our problems:



Fantastic. Now about the bill at hand and the pork within:



So not only has Obama allowed earmarks in this bill, but he is actually directly responsible for requesting some of it. But it's ok. He's having his name removed from it.

*sigh*

It's OK 'cause Japan removed a 20+ yr old statue of Colonel Sanders from a river! Feel good story of the century! Can it get any better than this? I submit that it cannot!
