self-righteous rhetoric about fiscal discipline, Republicans and Democrats
remain equal-opportunity earmarkers.
It's not true. A new analysis by a group of federal-spending watchdogs shows
a striking imbalance between the parties when it comes to earmark requests.

U.S. House Defeats Debt Ceiling Measure Democrats Call ‘Charade’

Republicans who control the House last week announced the vote as a way to
demonstrate that lawmakers don’t support extending the $14.3 trillion debt
