Everything Obama touches turns to crap. Even the simple process of weatherstripping a home.
ABC News reports that the General Accountability Office will declare today that the Energy Department has fallen woefully behind — about 98.5% behind — the 593,000 homes it initially predicted would be weatherized in the Recovery Act’s very first, very chilly year.
But no matter how little gets done the government bureacracy has to be paid, so they’ve spent $522 million dollars to do just 9,100 homes – at a amazing value price of just $57,362 per home.
BTW: The reason it goes to crap when Obama touches it is that he touches it with GOVERNMENT.

Obama is cutting the Coast Guard in 2011 by $312M and losing 1,112 military jobs. I guess we’ll just let people drown unless we pull the 12 USCG ships away from Haiti.

We have to make cuts, but his priorities seem very warped.
