Sen. Kennedy: People Upset at ‘Spending Porn’ in Latest Stimulus Bill
[BREITBART] KENNEDY: Well, you know, life is hard, but it’s harder when you’re stupid. And there’s an enormous amount of spending porn on pet projects that was put into this bill by some powerful members of Congress. They think the American people are, I guess, are morons and won’t notice, but they did. It’s why so many Americans think there’s no intelligent life in Washington, D.C. It’s why Congress polls right up there with robo-calls and sinkholes. This is what many Americans heard members of Congress say: Oh, my God, we could run out of ventilators. Oh, my God, people could die. Quick, let’s give money to the Kennedy Center and the post office. Now, that tells the American people that common sense is dead in Washington, D.C. It wasn’t a Lincoln moment. Nonetheless, those of us who are fiscal conservatives, we swallowed it. We had to. We passed the bill. I think it’s going to help the American people. But a pox on the House and houses of all of those members of Congress who took advantage of this disaster, this tragedy, to take care of their pet projects.

#1 I try to go to the Vietnam war memorial and 'the mall' every year. When in DC, I've never been to an event at the Kennedy center.
