11/18/09: Fun With Stimulus Numbers, Part 873

David Obey FTW!

A follow up to a story posted in this morning's Obama Fail Watch:

Rep. David Obey (D-WI) is not happy with the failure of the Obama administration to accurately report the results of the stimulus:

The inaccuracies on recovery.gov that have come to light are outrageous and the Administration owes itself, the Congress, and every American a commitment to work night and day to correct the ludicrous mistakes.

Credibility counts in government and stupid mistakes like this undermine it. We've got too many serious problems in this country to let that happen.

We designed the Recovery Act to be open and transparent and I expect the the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board, who oversees the recovery act web site and data to have information that is accurate, reliable and understandable to the American public.

President Obama, David Axelrod and Valerie Jarrett will return from China in a few days. David Obey better watch out.
