At my local congressman's town hall meeting last night I wanted to ask "With all the pork in the recent spending bill, did our district get its fair share?" But my turn for a question never came up.

He did try to blame the Democratic Senate for the delay in the budget cap resolution and therefore the delay in the appropriations. Personally I think the House's budget non-cap was way too high and the Senate was doing its best to be responsible. But too bad. The Senate went Republican and the gates of the corporate pig farm swung open.
