To put it kindly there have been many issues with the execution of the stimulus bill passed by the progressive Democrats in Congress without so much as peeking at what was in it.
After the bill was passed the American Public was assured that everything would be OK, after all the SCHMOTUS, Joe Biden was going to make sure. On March 12th Biden, told us that we were going to be protected from stupid uses of the $787 billion dollar stimulus money:
So if this -- six months from now, if the verdict on this effort is that we've wasted the money, we built things that were unnecessary, or we've done things that are legal but make no sense, then, folks, don't look for any help from the federal government for a long while. They're going to make sure -- the folks in the House and in the Senate are going to make sure you wear the jacket, not them.
This is a big deal -- this is a big deal. It's also being closely watched not just by me, but by the President, and by Mr. Devaney, who is one of the most respected IGs we have in the federal government, and is known by many of you. And it's also being watched by the taxpayers and it's being watched by the media.
That's right because NOBODY messes with Joe!
Despite all of that oversight from our Vice President and President, our money has been thrown to hundreds of really stupid projects. My particular favorite is the $300,000 spent on Mapping Radioactive Rabbit Feces (there are something you just cant make up).

Will be dumped in committee.
I pray for President Obamas personal safety because I know who the vice president is.
Go Joe Go!
I sure do love that man. Thanks Joe.
