The great lie at the heart of earmarking is that the projects funded create jobs at all.
Washington Nevada’s two senators, Democrat Harry Reid and Republican John Ensign, both bring federal money to the state in sizable if not equal shares, earmarking millions of dollars annually for water projects, police departments and other needs up and down Nevada.
