The Dept. of Homeland Security is not holding any bake sales

Rush Limbaugh recently (and oh so falsely) claimed that federal spending on environmental programs equals federal spending on defense/homeland security. (Media Matters) Heh. If wishes were horses. As Media Matters points out, "The federal government spends at least 14 times as much on defense and homeland security as it does on the environment, according to the White House budget office."

I would make some Oxycontin joke here but some of us consider it bad form to resort to ad hominem attacks on our adversaries.
