You bet, America, of which the Democrats, liberals and leftists in Congress appear not be a part, sees this pork and don't like it.
In the local newspaper where I live, and it's not big newspaper, the political cartoon this morning captured the sense of it, while heckling Obama for one of his infamous, misogynist things he said on the campaign trail.
It shows a HUGE pig, basically as big as the available cartoon space and looking directly at the reader, with "PORK" in big white letters on the pig's side and this caption: "Putting lipstick on a stimulus plan."
Maybe that's a new moniker for Obama: "Porky" or "Lipstick on a pig." Works for me.
