Pork Butt Byrd

I’d be more sympathetic to this article if it didn’t come out of a Florida paper, but there’s no question that Kleagle Byrd is and remains the king of pork.
Since I’ve come to believe that NASA is not the way to get us to Mars, I’m less than sympathetic to local (ie self-interested) newspapers bemoaning that a few million got whacked from the billions being poured into the “Space Coast”. Good God, folks, doesn’t Disney make you enough money as it is?
(We who frequent the Gulf Coast rather than the Space Coast just ignore this sort of thing. That money doesn’t tend to percolate over our way.)
