Wow, I didn't think the Democratic party could sink much lower, but I've been proven wrong yet again. During the election, they promised to cut out pork barrel spending for pet projects. Now, with the Iraq spending bill, they've added tons of new pork spending to it, including $500 million for wildfire suppression. They even managed to put in an extra $15 million for a Republican's constituents even though he didn't ask for it to be put into this bill.
It reeks of them trying to get Republicans to either vote for the bill in full, or be labeled that they voted "against the troops".
Live up to your campaign promises Democrats, or you'll find that your position as majority power holder in Congress will be short lived.
