Pigs at the trough.


From the Detroit News:


Imagine if Michigan's struggling Big Three automakers suddenly struck this
deal with Congress: The U.S. government would buy the Motor City's cars for
roughly twice the world market price, then resell them at about an 80 percent
loss.

This boondoggle of a deal would spur worldwide protest, and rightfully
so.

This is what the farm bill will do for sugar growers. So this cartoon is appropriate since the Republican COngressman crossed the line and failed to support the President's veto. Yes Brownback and Roberts voted yea.
