What would have been fun is if he had gone through the process, and answered all the questions with harsh criticisms of Obama’s moves, and made Obama withdraw his nomination.
Still, I’m glad he realised he was being screwed over.
I understand the census was swiped from the Commerce Dept., but why does he care about the stimulus?
Possibility: spending within the stimulus that usually would be done via Commerce is also taken away, either in the text of the bill, or Emanuel told Gregg the spending control is being taken away.
Probably so the Chicago Crew can get the cash easier, and with less strings.
A good reporter would ask follow up questions to Gregg what the problem was with the stimulus and was it on numbers, or control?
