Secret Hold Senator Gives Porkbusting An Unexpected Benefit: Sex Appeal

How do you make a story about a goo-goo transparency in government bill, regarding a kinda boring spending practice, interesting?

Make it a whodunnit detective story.

No knock on Wonkette, but Wonkette tends to go for the sensationalist and silly. So, when Wonkette gets into a story -- as they have here -- that means the story's got a high Q rating now.

As Instapundit says-- Thanks, Secret Hold Senator!

Also From Instapundit: An analysis shows that poor folks in America earn almost the exact same fraction of the median income as poor folks in socialist utopia Sweden do.

But the median income in America is higher, and what the rich can earn is much higher than that.

Socialism doesn't seem very good at raising the income of the poor.

It is, however, very good at limiting overall income and sharply limiting the incomes of the rich.

Which is nice enough, if the only thing that matters to the poor is knowing that no one else is too much richer.
