There is a difference between earmarks and pork.  You can have non-earmarked pork.

Americans still care about pork, Guido -- they just don't think it's pork if Obama proposes it.

You sound like a motor boat. Don't you understand, change is good. Nevermind what the change is. Never mind the man behind the curtain.

You know what they say Guido:

Conan, you are now -1 Karma.  Not for your ideological bent but for your indiscriminate use of ****.  Let's clean it up a little shall we?

I thought the **** like a fill int he blank.

Hope in one hand, beef in the other.

. . . John in the other.

All sorts of 4 letter words.   ;)

Please don't -1 Karma me for my snarky reply!
