Coburn Reports on Stimulus Waste
Sen. Tom Coburn released a report this morning on 100 projects being funded by stimulus money in which there may be less than meets the eye.
“Rather than growing our economy, the overall impact of stimulus spending may prove to be harmful to our economy. For example, Washington’s efforts to ‘stimulate’ the economy are increasing utility costs, repairing bridges nobody uses, building tunnels for turtles, and renovating extravagant train stations in remote areas while widely-used bridges and roads in poor shape are passed over,” Coburn said.

Where is Obama’s promise to end the war in Iraq like he was preaching about all throughout his fraudulent campaign? Hypocrite jackass Democrats!
Isn’t this the same Tom Coburn who voted for the 2008 bailout? Don’t even talk to us about this being harmful to the economy. You sold us all into massive debt. Why are you not surprised this isn’t fixing the economy?
Where is Coburn’s report on the money that GW blew starting an unnecessary war with Iraq? Hypocrite jackass.
