What's so crazy about this?
You do realize we have three branches of government don't you?
The earmarks in that spending bill were put there before Obama even became President. 40% of them are from Republicans.
Sure, Obama could veto the entire thing, but it's not like he wants to shut down the government in a time when we need to be focused on the economic mess.
It sounds like Obama is going to address the earmark issue through proper reforms.
