Can you say Pork?

The following letter appeared in the Orange County Register on 2-13-09:

I just heard that there is $30 million in the so-called "stimulus" bill for a wetlands project in Nancy Pelosi's district to save the "Salt Marsh Harvest Mouse."
I have an alterative suggestion for Madam Pelosi: Give me the $30 million, and I will put the mice up in a four-star hotel and take them to Hometown Buffet for lunch every day.

Note: The money spent on the mouse would feed fifteen thousand families of unemployed workers for four months!!!
