who ya gonna call?

sen. jim demint has offered up an amendment in the senate to oppose all pork-barrel earmarks for one year.

so far, seven senators have signed up as co-sponsors to support the measure including one democrat:

Jim DeMint (R-SC)
John McCain (R-AZ)
Claire McCaskill (D-MO)
Tom Coburn (R-OK)
Jon Kyl (R-AZ)
Bob Corker (R-TN)
Richard Burr (R-NC)
Lindsey Graham (R-SC)

sadly, neither of kentucky's senators are on the list. perhaps you should give their offices a call?

sen. jim bunning
