    Four months after passing the stimulus, less than 6% of it ($48 billion) has actually been spent.

    Worse than that, the overwhelming majority of it (43%) isn't set to be spent until 2010 which is conveniently an election year. :D

    Funny that the 1079 bill which had to be passed quickly to prevent economic apocalypse has been spent at such a slow rate. Nevermind that representatives had less than 24 hours to actually read the bill.

    I couldn't be more proud of our government! :rolleyes:

    Our dear leader has a lot of foresight. To secure his re-election in the first 90 days in office is yet another sign of his brilliance!
