What We Have In Common
Sarah explains their passion for earmarks

"One reason Old Mac's picking me is
    I'm great at double-talk.
Not only can I talk the talk
    like him I've walked the walk.

"We both have made an issue
    of being for reform
Unless it impacts him or me,
    in which case we're lukewarm.

"I was for the Bridge to Nowhere but
    the earmark fell far short.
We didn't want to tax ourselves,
    ergo a bridge abort.

"Of course we kept the money
    for which we thank you much.
You ask what did we spend it on?
    Mostly snowmobiles and such.

"If I've seemed a little piggy,
    earmarks are dreams come true.
They help us through long winters
    when abstinence is hard to do."
