How the hell is this so-called-Pork

[Monkeyman]

Agricultural Assistance $3.7 Billion

Katrina Relief and Recovery $2.9 Billion

Urgent Homeland Security Needs $2.6 Billion

Urgent State Children's Health Insurance Needs $750 Million

Equipment and Training for Troops before going to Iraq

A Time Limit to get the hell out of Iraq

Replace Pe-ll Grants that Bush took away. This is what Republicans and others in the Media is calling Pork I just don't get it.

2. It depends on the specific program. For all I know, "Agricultural Assistance $3.7 Billion" could

benefit tobacco growers. :shrug:

3. To the GOP

any $$$ or services that do not go directly to the DOD is "pork."
