Attack Bachmann for requesting money from EPA, ignore that the EPA took money from her district in the first place.

I see no wrong in taking money from government. If she votes against it can not be considered hypocrisy. What would be hypocrisy is if she said she was against stimulus but voted for the stimulus.

And the bachmann people will just turn it around and point out how many times Paul requested earmarks. But but but he voted against the whole spending bills but but but so do Bachmann vote against the stimulus. Very hypocritical to attack her on this.

I don't have a problem with earmarks, I have a problem with pork.
