Hy-pork-risy
Having grown up on a hog farm, pork is something that I've always known about.
This, however, is not my father's pork. A couple of weeks ago my
brother-in-law sent me the cartoon shown below. It's by
Joe Heller of
the Green Bay Press-Gazette
and I believe it's from 2/26/2009.

Since it's obvious to anyone with a nose on his/her face that the Republicans
are up to their usual political games, I don't need to say much. They are
eager to spend, spend, spend on unnecessary wars without making any effort to
pay for it, but when President Obama wants to spend to help average Americans,
the Republicans say how awful it is to create debt for our grandchildren. Billions
for foolish, useless wars but not one cent to help economic recovery or improve
healthcare or education or to help the environment.
