P.S. Also see Bacon’s Rebellion for an article on Eric Cantor’s strong support for “pork barrel” spending. Also note, “One place you won’t read the story is the Richmond Times-Dispatch, which ran a wire service piece about the vote but (predictably) left out any mention of the role of Prince Eric, whom the newspaper deeply loves and whose wife, Diana, serves on the board of parent firm Media General.” Exactly why I sometimes refer to that paper as the “Republican Times-Diagrace.”
