Republican skull-duggery

Suppose you were a Congressman that voted on a bill. Then suppose the bill went to a committee whose job was to work out the differences between House and Senate versions. Suppose that committee actually inserted pork-barrell projects onto the bill, in your name.

Sound disreputable?

It is, and it is happening more than ever with Republicans steering the ship. The Boston Globe has written all about this practice in an article called, "Back-room dealing a Capitol trend".
