Washington, D.C. - Today Citizens Against Government Waste (CAGW) launched its new blog, www.SwineLine.org.
For its inaugural post, SwineLine.org features an impromptu run-and-gun video of actor Kiefer Sutherland, known around the globe as the indomitable “Jack Bauer” on Fox Television’s blockbuster series “24.” Sutherland, in D.C. shooting an episode for the series, caught sight of Porky and proceeded to “ham it up” with CAGW staff on camera.
SwineLine.org is another tool offered by CAGW to educate taxpayers about how the feds are misspending tax dollars. It will be a platform for dialogue with taxpayers around the country on wasteful and egregious spending issues in their local areas, as well as a meeting place to share information and strategies for restoring accountability and transparency to all levels of government.
The Swine Line blog will feature biting commentary on government waste, taxes, earmarks, pork-barrel spending, and other budget issues. It will be a clearinghouse for video, photos, cartoons, and links to dozens of other national and state-based taxpayer watchdog groups which track and expose government waste.
The blog is also linked to on the CAGW home page, www.cagw.org.
Citizens Against Government Waste is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to eliminating waste, fraud, abuse, and mismanagement in government.
