The Club for Growth has posted an interesting pork scorecard. Certain Republicans (and one Democrat) would do well to promote its findings.

• Sixteen congressmen scored a perfect 100%, voting for all 50 anti-pork amendments. They are all Republicans.
• The average Republican score was 43%. The average Democratic score was 2%.
• The average score for appropriators was 4%. The average score for non-appropriators was 25%.
• Kudos to Rep. Jim Cooper (D-TN) who scored an admirable 98%-the only Democrat to score above 20%.
• Rep. David Obey (D-WI) did not vote for his own amendment to strike all earmarks in the Labor-HHS appropriations bill. Rep. Obey scored an embarrassing 0% overall.
• 105 congressmen scored an embarrassing 0%, voting against every single amendment. The Pork Hall of Shame includes 81 Democrats and 24 Republicans.
• The Democratic Freshmen scored an abysmal average score of 2%. Their Republican counterparts scored an average score of 78%.

My representative, the moderate Republican Brian Bilbray, scored a decent 78 percent.

Other San Diego County representatives:
Darrell Issa (R): 86 percent
Duncan Hunter (R): 26 percent (I suspect this may be lower than it would've been had Hunter not been running for president.)
Susan Davis (D): 2 percent
Bob Filner (D): 2 percent
