The “Porkbusters On Patrol” project announced here yesterday is a joint effort that involves key players inside and outside the Beltway, some of whom gathered on short notice in Washington this week to brainstorm about the project. Let me take a moment to recognize them and to express my appreciation for their eagerness to embrace the idea:

– Glenn Reynolds of Instapundit, a co-founder of the Porkbusters coalition back in 2005
– American Conservative Union
– Americans For Prosperity
– Center for Fiscal Accountability
– Citizens Against Government Waste
– The Club For Growth
– The Heritage Foundation
– National Taxpayers Union
– RedState
– The Sunlight Foundation
– Taxpayers For Common Sense

The Next Right also bumped my blog post about “Porkbusters On Patrol” to the front page yesterday, and Steven Foley of The Minority Report asked me to cross-post the entry on his site. Plus this afternoon, Ed Morrissey of Hot Air has asked me to talk about the Porkbusters project on his radio show.

Thanks to all for promoting Eyeblast’s initial foray into networked video journalism.
