Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi is claiming that there will be no earmarks in the economic recovery bill that passes the House.
Well, she’s on record. Will she live up to the claim?

So why did she leave in the 2 Billion Blago earmark?

Earmarking the new National Capitol
redneck_hippie (Diary) Thursday, February 5th at 9:31PM EST (link)I’m gonna double check and see if there’s a few billion hidden away to move the entire capital (domes, chambers, White House, statues, trees, grass and all) to King Richard’s new Olympic annex.
King Richard did say that he refuses to tell taxpayers what the shovel-ready projects are that he put into the spending request to DC. He actually said that if he tells the people what the money will be used for, they will question and complain. We sure know what a leader is here in Illinois.
What earmarks?
6eorge Jetson (Diary) Thursday, February 5th at 9:22PM EST (link)When a top Democratic leader issues a claim accompanied by an attention-grabbing hand gesture, be very, very skeptical.
Also note the tell tailing sign that her lips are moving.
No earmarks? Of course not, it's all IN the bill.
Vegas_Rick (Diary) Thursday, February 5th at 9:26PM EST (link)No need for earmarks, they’re not interested in hiding this spending spree.
“God is great, beer is good and people are crazy.”- Billy Currington
“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘press on’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.” Calvin Coolidge.

Earmarks ? Of course there's earmarks.

Sorry. Best I could do on short notice.
I noticed in this spot that no bible was present...
conservativemusician Thursday, February 5th at 10:57PM EST (link)when Pelosi raised her right hand saying there would be no earmarks in the bill…not that it would make a difference anyway to a flaming lib like her. Either way, lots of people now apparently aren’t buying her assurances of no earmarks as public support is fading rapidly…and rightfully so.
I really thought with the commanding majorities the Dems have in both houses that it would be smooth sailing on this and other socialist crap they want to try and pull. I’m pleasantly surprised that I didn’t see this coming…as well as the fact that the GOP is starting to get a backbone.
not smooth, but still sailing - more later - nt

Frankly, I don't know why the dems are even bothering
Praying (Diary) Friday, February 6th at 8:47AM EST (link)to try to get GOP support. Other than that, as I’ve mentioned here before, they are like a group of lemmings rushing to follow their chosen leader off the cliff, and they want to make sure there are at least a few republicans following them so that they can blame them “They pushed us off” when the whole thing crashes and burns (which it is almost guaranteed to do). This great country of ours is acting a lot like an alcoholic in denial right now, and apparently, has to hit rock bottom before it will wake up and admit it has a problem.
