Citizens Against Government Waste have just released their <a href="http://www.cagw.org/site/PageServer?pagename=reports_pigbook2008">2008 Pig Book</a>, and it shows that Thad Chocran (R-MS) led the Senate in earmarking in 2008 with $892 million.

They are often criticized as facilitators of waste and corruption.
