Earmarks - It's All Good Fun Until Someone Puts A Bridge Out

It's amazing how this new practice of 'earmarks' just sprung on us, unannounced and unprecedented, in the last year.

Wait, you're saying that they exponentially multiplied under Republican Congressional control?

I never would have known that, given that the Bush administration has only been talking about them for a year.

Wait, what else happened a year ago? The Democrats took control of Congress? And, suddenly, earmarks were a bane and a blemish on the unmarred facade of the government? Stunning, that.
