Another Obama Promise Bites The Dust...
The lede from an article today in USA Today:
WASHINGTON — Although President Obama has vowed that citizens will be able to track “every dime” of the $787 billion stimulus bill, a government website dedicated to the spending won’t have details on contracts and grants until October and may not be complete until next spring — halfway through the program, administration officials said.But no matter. It’s only money, and not even his.
Say What?
On Fox News a typically arrogant Obama economic spokesperson Goolsbee (sp?) brushed aside the question of lack of transparency on the website saying that they are already taking care of this and VP Biden is in charge. So much for transparency.
