- Many Republican Senators complain about Obama spending policies, then vote for the spending increases
- Nearly $10 billion in stimulus aid to repair the nation’s tattered highways has largely bypassed areas where roads are in the worst shape
- The Federal Aviation Administration will spend over $10 million on an airstrip that has no demonstrated need, doesn’t meet the FAA’s minimum quota for air traffic, and is only 11 miles away from an existing airport
- AIDS Pork: San Francisco continues to receives federal funding for AIDS patients who died decades ago
- Only 22 percent of Defense Travel System users are happy with the problem-plagued $500 million government travel system
- American Jazz Museum in Missouri receives $300,000 congressional earmark
