Just get your rep as the head of the Ways and Means committee and one-quarter to one-third of the highway money is yours....

Skeets, You have the American political dilemma. It isn't pork barrel or wasted spending if it benefits me. <g> I remember a friend, a right winger, talking about when Jim Wright resigned from Congress. "He was a liberal and I hated him, but he sure brought a lot of money into the district." Most folks think that way and conservative and liberal mean nothing compared to "lets steal from them to give us more."
