Republicans spent all of 2009 complaining and crying about "The democrats pork barrel spending".

(Republican) Senator's Projects Stall Obama Appointees - CBS News
The objection is from (Republican) Sen. Richard Shelby, who wasn't even there, but is using a Senate tactic to stall confirmation of scores of Obama appointees. It's all to try to get his way on major spending issues in his home state.
Shelby also wants the administration to release $45 million from an earmark he got in 2008 for a "Terrorist Explosives Devices Analytical Center" at an Army base in - you guessed it - Shelby's home state.
