HOPE LOST, CHANGE IS LOSING

A long delayed $410 billion omnibus spending bill, loaded with nearly 9,000 (!) spending earmarks is now before the Senate.Minutes after hitting the Senate floor Monday,

Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), is not happy.

We need earmark reform and when I’m president, I will go line by line to make sure we’re not spending money unwisely,” McCain said, reading back Obama’s words at a debate last fall. “That’s the quote, the promise of the president of the United States made to the American people in a debate with me in Oxford, Miss. So what is brought to the floor today — 9,000 earmarks.…So much for change.”

Hope & Change - it must be getting crowded under the Obama bus.
