Virginia Foxx Is Against Earmarks, Then For Them, Then Against ThemNorth Carolina Republican U.S. Representative Virginia Foxx has been speaking out against the use of earmarks in congressional legislation for two years now. It might be surprising to her supporters to learn, therefore, that Representative Foxx has maneuvered to get 4.5 million dollars inserted into congressional legislation this year. Foxx says that it's all okay, though, because she's going to stop trying to get earmarks to reward her campaign supporters... sometime later... maybe next year. Virginia Foxx used to be against earmarks, but then she was for them, though she promises to be against them some time in the future. Typical Republican doubletalk.

 Democrats are against Senator Jay Rockefeller because Senator Rockefeller has betrayed the Democratic Party over and over again, on the Iraq War, on torture, & on government spying. No to Rockefeller! Put a Big Red Slash Through the GOP. |
 Andre Carson has made a great start representing the seventh district of Indiana in Congress, though he's been rudely attacked by the Republicans. Support Carson for Congress with this button. |  Give peace a chance? Oh, yeah, sure. But more than that, if you want to end violence, all we are saying is give pizza chants. |  The red slash through the word "war" is a straightforward anti-war expression for this kids' t-shirt, made sweatshop free by American Apparel and printed by Skreened. |
