2. Voting now on CYA earmark reform
Something for the Repukes to run out the last two weeks, and go home to their districts saying they cleaned up Washnigton :eyes:

Louise Slaughter is corralling the Dems to vote against it

7. Isn't that "pork"?
That's what Newt used to call it when the Dems were in control of of Congress.

Guess it's "earmarks" when the Rethugs are in the control.

Neat trick.
