PorkBusters

We're a little late to the party here, but this is something that I can definitely get behind.
Glenn Reynolds and N.Z. Bear (creater of the TTLB) have joined together to create and push a blogosphere-driven campaign aimed at getting every Representative and every Senator to commit to cutting significant pork projects in their district or state. Thus freeing up money to actually pay for the Katrina disaster instead of forcing our kids to pay off the fed's credit card sometime in the future.
Apparently the Wall Street Journal has jumped on the bandwagon. Hopefully this is only the beginning of returning at least a smidgeon of fiscal sanity to the GOP-run federal government.

eh.
How much pork is there really really?
I bet I could get more savings from rationalizing ONE DoD program than anything you'd ever get from this.
Doesn't mean this shouldn't get done.
But it sure keeps people's attention away from the big issues.
Can't deny that.
