Why isn't Porkbusters going after Fred Thompson?




Putz supposedly hates pork, but his mancrush Fred Thompson seems to be a little piggie.
"Fred Thompson's eight-year record is generally pro-growth with an excellent record on entitlement reform and school choice and a very good record on taxes, regulation, and trade," said Club for Growth President Pat Toomey. "His belief in a limited federal government is demonstrated by his numerous votes against government intrusion in the private sector and increased federal spending. His fondness for Tennessee pork aside, Thompson consistently voted against increased spending and new government projects, at times, one of only a handful of senators to do so."
Will Putz look the other way because it's Tennessee pork?
