Earmark Alert

Patrick Ruffini has a new feature up at The Next Right (should be a daily read for you). This new feature, Earmark Alert, keeps up with “the most outrageous earmark news from across the country.” Appropriately enough, he starts out with a “doozy.”

…the #3 Democrat in the House caught red handed earmarking to $6.2 million to his nephew, and groups that employ his daughter and sister-in-law.

At least the Democrats are consistent.

UPDATE: link added, sorry.

    I’m not ignoring you, pap, just crazy busy through the next week or so.

    To be honest, I don’t know much about the Palestinian Orthodox situation. I’ll check it out, though. Heck, I’d be thrilled if I could get my arms around my own. Are you hinting at something specific outside of the “regular” Israeli-Palestinian conflict?

    Naw, att’s pretty much it. Ginerally speakin’, the Orthurdox worldwide ain’t too taken with the Israelis, mainly cuzza how they treat the Palestinians, Christians as well as Muslims. Plus, the State of Israel has a degree of control over who is elected the Patriarch of Jerusalem. Also always a bone of contention.
