Sen. DeMint claims (in a foolishly partisan attack) that he has declared war on earmarks. A practice he denounces as wasting taxpayers’ money.
Next we hear from The State that Sen. DeMint is one of 13 in Congress that has given up 'pork'.
Now we have the Seattle Times reporting that Sen. DeMint was the leading pork distributer in the SC delegation, handing out over $30,000,000.00 in earmarks much of it to persons who have given over$53,000.00 to Sen. DeMint
So what is it? Is Senator DeMint the savior of the South Carolina taxpayer, or the fattest hog at the troff.
