Steaming Load Award: The stinking turds which were hidden inside Messiah Barry’s $787 billion Porkulus Bill.

If you wondered what kind of asinine bullshit is buried inside the Porkulus Bill, wonder no more. Here, courtesy of the Washington Examiner, are some ways the Congressional Clown Posse is pissing away your money:

A snow making facility for DULUTH? The last time I looked, Mother Nature was hitting the city with her best, winter weather on steroids, shots. A GPS helicopter to search for radioactive rabbit crap? Concrete crappers? Why the hell are we paying for that bullcrap?

As bad as this list is, I’m forced to admit that it’s only the tip of the iceberg. That’s why we must put these spend-a-holic Elected Tormentors out of our misery, by any/all means at our disposal. Flush every last one of them? You better believe it, it can’t happen soon enough, Sparky.
