Our politicians have always had a way with words.

If there is any similarity between the 44th president and his predecessors, it may well lie in his ability with words.  Saying one thing and then doing another altogether is so common among politicians that we have come to expect it from them all.  Pork barrel spending obama is not as different as he’d like us all to think, as demonstrated by his campaign promises.

With many personal projects earmarked for spending, his are not as absurd as many of his predecessors.  He’s really into water and road projects as well as assisting universities and colleges along with non-profit groups that have made modest to major requests for funds.

Pork barrel spending refers to the hidden agenda that most bills have attached to them.  Items that would fail alone, but when slipped in with popular items, will usually sneak through unnoticed.
