re: #600 lawhawk

Okay folks, this is depressing, but this helps explain how and why Obama is and will continue to be a teflon president. He’s now telling mayors not to waste stimulus money. He’s going to frame himself as the responsible one in this porkfest, rather than its progenitor by passing this pork on regardless of what was actually in it.

No one read it.

There were no controls on the money or the purse.

It’s a trend that he started with the claims that annoy me to no end - that his porkfest will create or save millions of jobs. It’s a nonsensical term. How do you count? You can’t - because if you’re still in your job despite the stimulus you count as a saved job.

It was all about spending your tax dollars.

Yes, I heard the Boston mayor, (Mumbles) Menino, saying how the 0 was going to require transparency in the way cities spend the money. Must be the only people that he’ll require that from.
