Congressional Democrats, attempting to make good on their pledge to be more fiscally responsible than ousted Republicans, actually eliminated pork-barrel earmarks from spending bills the GOP left unfinished.

They were off to a promising start. But our hopes that the anti-earmark trend might carry over into this year's appropriations process have been dashed. And as it turns out, just because members have to file a list of earmarks doesn't mean they have to make the list public.

A $1.6 billion budget work program was approved Tuesday by the Oklahoma Human Services Commission. Approximately $535 million of that money for fiscal year 2008 came from the recent state appropriations while another $21 million in carry-over also contributed to the budget level.
College and university presidents were asked by lawmakers Wednesday to defend why they have nearly $90 million in unused funding.
