Senator Hillary Clinton is the queen of pork barrel spending for fiscal year 2009. As The Hill reports, she is asking for $2.3 billion in earmarks for New York at the expense of taxpayers.

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) has requested nearly $2.3 billion in federal earmarks for 2009, almost three times the largest amount received by a single senator this year... Clinton’s huge earmark requests have some speculating that the former first lady is preparing for a soft landing should she lose the Democratic primary to Obama and refocus her energy on winning a third Senate term.

Hillary had the audacity to vote for the Senate earmark moratorium bill, while at the same time refusing to give up her addiction to earmarks. The hypocrisy stinks, and the American people will not be happy to hear about how much money they will be sending to New York against their will.
