TW: If one spends even a little time reading American history and the Congress, the neverending flow of hypocrisy is obvious. The latest incarnation of demogoguery and populist hypocrisy relates to earmarks. Putting aside their relative size compared to the rest of the budget. 90% plus of those that bloviate upon the issue use earmarks. TPM does a nice slideshow of some of the prime pomposity.
