In a fit of unbridled candor Democrat Jim Moran reveals his reason for wanting to take House control back for or his party: "When I become chairman [of a House appropriations subcommittee], I'm going to earmark the shit out of it".
The article goes on to say:
Moran, D-8th, told those attending the Arlington County Democratic Committee's annual Jefferson-Jackson Day dinner on June 9 that while he in theory might oppose the fiscal irresponsibility of earmarks - funneling money to projects in a member of Congress's district - he understands the value they have to constituents.
What he recognizes is their value to his political career.
