John Yarmuth, And Others Like Him, Fall In Love With, And KISS, The BAILOUT Pig With Lipstick. So Much For CHUTZPAH.
Below is a list of "pork" contained in the revised bailout plan, that made John Yarmuth fall in love with the Pig with Lipstick:
This is how Washington works," said Keith Ashdown of Taxpayers for Common Sense, a Washington research group. "A big pot of pork is their recipe for final passage."
The special provisions include tax breaks for:
* Manufacturers of kids' wooden arrows - $6 million.
* Puerto Rican and Virgin Islands rum producers - $192 million.
* Wool research.
* Auto-racing tracks - $128 million.
* Corporations operating in American Samoa - $33 million.
* Small- to medium-budget film and television productions - $10 million.
Another measure inserted into the bill appears to be a bald-faced bid aimed at winning the support of Rep. Don Young (R-Alaska), who voted against the original version when it went down in flames in the House on Monday.
That provision - a $223 million package of tax benefits for fishermen and others whose livelihoods suffered as a result of the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill -- has been the subject of fervent lobbying by Alaska's congressional delegation.
Below is the list of Hog Kissers (they voted yes, on the bailout bill. The Noes deserve your THANKS.):
