From our editorial today:

Last week, anti-pork bloggers scored a victory when they recast Sen. Ted Stevens’s “secret” obstruction of the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act — which will make it harder for him and others to siphon dollars to their pet projects — as a whodunit. This focused attention on Stevens, leading to his capitulation and the passage of the bill. But the time for self-congratulation is over. This week it’s House conservatives who are pushing for more spending transparency, and they need help getting an important reform past the not-so-secret obstruction of their powerful colleagues on the House Appropriations Committee.
