Especially once all the pork is tied on .

Still if you want to get help from the government you sort of have to play by there rules (and seeing as they write the rules it often pays to have their help ). There is also technically a distinction between begging the government to slip funding to an organization/institution, and asking the government to make supporting an organization more financially appealing.
