We Oink Reporters LOVE it when a pork loving rag of a media outlet squeals for bacon. Take Tulsa World’s column titled Earmarks Eyed, for example.

For some inexplicable reason, six members of Oklahoma’s seven-member congressional delegation seem to understand the value and importance of helping to fund much-needed projects across the state, while one holdout continues to maintain a stance that helps other states at the expense of Oklahoma.

In reality English, this means that Tulsa World editors are throwing a fit because other states get more pork than they do.

Coburn repeatedly has refused to explain himself to Tulsa World staff, so we have to deduce his reasoning from other sources. He seems to espouse a hard-line ideology on federal spending that won’t permit him to consider even the most deserving of projects.

Can we get a round of applause?
