Whew, I'm so relieved that BO has promised they won't "waste" stimulus money. ("Waste," in BO's mind, is spending on things like the military.)

But what about old-fashioned graft? Has he ever broken a promise? Oh, wait...

Then I guess he’s going to not give any to Illinois, New Jersey, California, or Massachusetts - just to name four sleezeball state governments that immediately come to mind.

I see 3 “community centers” on the Dearborn wish list totaling over 100 million dollars. Nope, no waste there.

He’s giving notice that when the stimulus doesn’t work he plans to throw the recipients of the pork under the bus (just ONE of the strings attached).

Looks like they won’t be able to spend much of it at all, since most of the bill’s items are wasteful as written in the law.

Here’s what our ding-dong Governors/Mayors are asking for and getting. Plenty-o-pork in there, if you ask me!

Obama: “I'll waste the American people's money to pay off ACORN and my voting base, but you greedy mayors had better not waste my money on your own pay offs!”

Carling: “Shoot me now!"

Yeah, don’t waste taxpayers money on things like projectors for Planetariums.

President Barack Obama warned the nation's mayors on Friday that he will "call them out" if they waste the money from his massive economic stimulus plan.

Dictator?

I don't want to promote political fear, just asking.

Has it even been a topic of concern nationally?

According to David Frum, you're all being "braid dead" for opposing Obama.
