« If Mc Cain is Maverick, Obama is Iceman. | Now is the Time's Blog | $150K for some clothes vs. $3.5 million for a projector. Oh, the hypocrisy! »

You will know their names and I'll make them famous.


If there is one thing that John Mc Cain seems to pride himself in, it's his disdain for earmarks.  You know those wasteful spending projects that congressional members insert into bills for their states and districts.  Every chance he gets he whips out a pen to imitate the veto of the legislation that "literally" has "any pork" in it.  Then he recites the phrase that has become his signature line.  "You will know their names and I'll make them famous." 

Well, there seems to be some waste going on in his campaign and he should be called out for not naming the name; Sarah Palin.   Spending $150,000 for wardrobe expenses is obscene and Senator Mc Cain should be brought to the carpet for not signaling out the "waste."  Granted it is not taxayer money that is being wasted, it is something more personal, money donated to a political campaign. 

If Mc Cain wins the presidency, look for him to run the country like he has run his campaign.  So, I woudn't hold my breath waiting for him to veto a bill that has been weighted down with pork.  It seems that his hypocrisy will never end.

His disdain for earmarks is phony. Lip-service. And false: it is how the system works: if your ccongressman or Senator doesn't bring home "the bacon," you replace him with someone who will. If you don't, those from the other 49 states will get that bacon.

As for Palin and earmarks: those aren't earrings; those are earmarks.

Update: those earrings are earmarks, those earmarks are earrings.
