Fox News is running a special report tomorrow night at 8pm on earmarks:
Congressional 'earmarks' have become a national scandal – and a national joke: Lawmakers wasting tax dollars on their pet projects, and costing Americans up to $60 billion a year. But this exclusive investigation uncovers more than waste. FOX News exposes lawmakers -- including former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert -- who spent millions of dollars of your money on projects that fattened their personal bank accounts.H/T: Club for Growth
[UPDATE - Friday] Funny this mentions Hastert. About five minutes after posting this I read where he was hired by a lobbying group.
[UPDATE - Saturday] You can read more about the show here.

It is again as said many times follow the money.

What do you expect from Hastert? First this, and then he decides to join the "transgendered" lobbying firm of Dickstein and Shapiro. No wonder the McCain team cried a collective "good grief"
