The No Shrimp Left Behind Act

I guess the big fancy spending bill that Congress passed is full of silly things like $1-million for the Wild American Shimp Initiative.

John McCain says: "I am hoping that the appropriators could explain to me why we need $1-million for this - are American shrimp unruly and lacking initiative? Why does the U.S. taxpayer need to fund this "no shrimp left behind' act?"

And lets not forget the $6.28-million going to to Oregon State University for wood utilization research. I wonder what they are going to use their wood for? I bet my mommy has some good ideas.
