$39,000,000 for an agency doing the same work as 19 others…
The Democrats and the most ethical congress in history march on. You may remember this as the fight that got Murtha in a bit of hot water with no one and had him threatening to remove all earmarks from Mike Rogers’ future bills (a clear violation of House rules that warranted zero response or reprimand from the impotent and uneffective Speaker, Nancy Pelosi).
Here’s CNN on where $39,000,000 almost went (hint: Murtha’s back yard) and how Rogers caught this “oversight.”
Naturally, Murtha’s response is that he won’t do a CNN interview about it and that he won’t share his other earmark requests. Guess he doesn’t want anyone finding any more “oversights.”
