Hold The Pickle

Thoroughly entertaining was the Drudge-Vilsack (The Pickle) battle waged yesterday over the government stimulus spending on food for shelters and soup kitchens that feed the poor, such as pictured here.










Part of the federal funds went for 760,000 pounds of ham at a price of $1.19 million, or about $1.50 a pound.

Drudge linked a grocery store (Food Lion) circular that had ham at 79 cents a pound.

That must be the government type of "greater inefficiencies" President Obama cited




And the scientific community is united in that fact.
