Oh, what's the big deal - so the White House official who is overseeing the weatherizing aspects funded by the stimulus chose the little known window company her husband just happens to work at. Conflict of interest? Noooooooo way. Nothing to see here folks, move along, move along.
Global Warming?
Remember the scientist who created the infamous hockey stick chart in Al Gore's movie? He is being investigated for manipulation of data related to global warming. Guess who got a wad ($500,000) in stimulus cash? HE DID! Isn't President Obama's administration neat?
Jobs Created or saved
In an unfortunate choice of articles, MSNBC earlier had a featured set of headlines in their politics section regarding the stimulus package and its effect on the troubled job market. One article touts the recent White House claim that the stimulus package had saved 2 million jobs.
But the other article explains why a new method of accounting adopted by the White House will make it "impossible to track the number of jobs saved or created with the $787 billion in recovery money."
