Pork barrel attack on the US Air Force Republican Idaho Senator Larry Craig has blocked the promotions of nearly 400 Air Force officers, including some who recently fought in Iraq in a bid to ensure that the US Air Force provides enough goodies for his state by adding four C-130 transport planes to complete a squadron at Gowen Air National Guard Base in Boise, Idaho. The Senator claims that the Air Force has reneged from an agreement to bases the planes at this base. People in Idaho must be very proud of their Senator. 11:59:03 PM
