Bailout Bill Earmarks

Does anyone have a link to a list of all the bailout add-ons and earmarks. Or, in other words, all the bribes that were added to it so that it would pass the House?

I feel compelled to explain just like before.






























Basically with this bill.










You gotta look close and watch your step. But the idiots you elected never do cause its not their feet doing the steppin.
