A clarification: Rep. Jim Moran (D-VA) wants everyone to know that earmarking “the shit out of” a possible chairmanship on an apporpriations subcommittee “is not a serious policy statement”:
The Congressmanâs remarks were meant to be light-hearted and not a serious policy statement; he is in fact very concerned with the irresponsible spending taking place in Congress. The Congressman has a strong record of fiscal responsibility, having voted for a balanced budget, supported pay-as-you-go budget rules and opposed what he considers to be the misplaced spending priorities of the current administration. Democrats are the party of fiscal restraint and will make it a top priority if they retake the House in November.
