RW, > I guess your expectation were much, much higher than mine. I'd like at least a sign that Obama is trying to put a halt on Murtha's pork-barrel nonsense. Heck, Obama was vehemently against paying big bonuses to AIG even though legally there might have been little he could have done to reverse course. Besides, Murtha's amount of pork has already reached $192 million in the last year alone. That's more than the AIG bonuses, wasn't it? Of course, it's easier to tell rich, spoiled executives to go take a hike than citizens of a declining steel and coal community. Tenchusatsu
