Pork Projects of the Day -- Dec. 31 by David Freddoso Posted Dec 31, 2003 humaneventsonline.com In an effort to keep the American people informed about where their tax dollars are going and to keep politicians accountable, we are bringing to you a regular list of pork projects delivered fresh from the fiscal 2004 omnibus spending bill. The Senate has yet to vote on the Omnibus Appropriations Bill, so it's not too late to defeat it. You can contact your Senator by dialing the Senate switchboard and asking for your Senator's office: 202-224-3121. $200,000 for exhibit and curriculum development for the Western Pennsylvania Sports Museum at the Senator John Heinz Pittsburgh Regional History Center. --We keep hearing about all this money that Heinz’s widow-now John Kerry’s wife-inherited. She must be saving it for the presidential campaign ---------- $1,000,000 for facilities construction for Tampa Bay Watch in Florida. --This is an environmental non-profit group that is lucky enough to be situated in the district of House Appropriations chairman Bill Young (R.-Fla.). ---------- $250,000 Alaska Aviation Heritage Museum in Anchorage for improvements. $300,000 Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs in Illinois for restoration of the Chicago Cultural Center Domes. $100,000 North Star Productions, Inc. in Bracken County, Kentucky for construction of an amphitheatre. $400,000 for the New York Botanical Garden’s "Virtual Herbarium" project in the Bronx. --What did Americans ever do for culture before the federal government started giving out goodies like these?

MKT, I think the trial of Saddass will be a real trip. I envision it going something like this. Chief Judge: "...Are you Saddass* Hussein..."? Saddass: "...Yes...".* Chief Judge: "...How do you plead to the charges made against you..."? Saddass: "...Per my supreme hero, Charlie Manson, I declare that you have no authority over me...". Chief Judge: "...We'll take that as a "Not Guilty by reason of Supreme Arsehole-ism". Will the attorneys for the State and the Defense please proceed". Resident Courtroom Gnomes: "...Blah blah blah blah. Bluster bluster bluster bluster. Mumbo mumbo mumbo. Jumbo jumbo jumbo. Many photographs of trenches full of dead people and babies, and warehouses and tunnels full of banned weapons. Hundreds of heartbroken witnesses. Blah blah blah blah. Bluster bluster bluster bluster. Mumbo mumbo. Jumbo jumbo. Mumbo..!! Jumbo..."!!!. Chief Judge: "...Finding you guilty on all charges, you are condemmed to public execution by firing squad. On the following morning at dawn, you will be tied - nude - to a stake in the public square in Baghdad, while standing in a bushel basket full of fire ants. Whereupon, 10 novice members under the age of 11 of the new Iraqi National NRA will attempt to shoot you in the face with .22 bolt-action single-shot rifles - using high-velocity hollow-points from 150 yards - until you are declared dead by a deaf-dumb-&-mute Mullah flown in from Iran ..."!!! "...May Allah have mercy on your carcass - a good pair of nose plugs...". Cue: Gavel whack. Exit stage left........................... John :-) .
