It sure ain't kosher

Pork Mountain, aka Capital Hill, has long been known as a secretive place when it comes to how and where our money is wasted, er, I mean spent. Thanks to Senators Coburn (R-OK) and Obama (D-IL), a little light is being shined into the dark areas of legislation where pet and pork projects tend to hide. This new website will finally allow you to see at least some of the pork stuffed into legislation passed by Congress.

Check it out.

My main complaint about it is you can’t search by Member of Congress to see their pig farms in one place, but it’s better than what we used to have, which was nothing.
