What ever happened to no pork. Or is it a stimulus you decide.?* $ 600 Million To Buy New Cars For Government Workers (Page 89). These cars would be "green" friendly cars - however very few gas pumps have the right gas to run these cars. The Federal government already spends $ 3.5 billion a year.

* $ 200M for plug-in car stations (Page 31)

Now is this just a stimulus package or has Obama finally shown that he won't keep up on his promises. you tell me.
ah he wouldn't give up meat when he has his hundred dollar steaks.
If you wanted to. Google pork in the new stimulus bill. It should be in the first or second page.
are you serious? This is the NEW stimulus package. The last one was checks that went to the families. That stimulated more than this ever will. So words directly from the bill is all propaganda now is it? Maybe you were using a liberal search engine. We have to information to back us up. We are just making it all up. The democrats aren't dishonest(both parties have people who are), they don't try and put 90% of a 1 trillion as pork.
whimsy
It is a spending stimulus Bill, which means, money will be spent...
I can't see how this is "pork" because the intent is to spend.

Since Obama has went by different names in his life I would like to suggest a new one for him
Porky Obama
I guess he isnt a muslim though as he loves pork too much to be one.
ATTENTION: Testicles That Is All
Obama decided he wasn't a vegetarian so he loaded up on the pork.
Boss H
link please
doing a search for what you suggested will bring up nothing but propaganda sites.
I haven't witnessed you telling us which bil you are speaking of, because I can look the full text up and i bet I wil find nothing in it that you are talking about.
