$20 MILLION SPENT ON STIMULUS SIGNS?

FAQ from the Federal Transportation Authority that is for recipients of the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act funds:

‘’Are FTA grantees required to display any special signs or logos to identify ARRA funded projects?

‘’Yes.... The grant agreement for each FTA ARRA grant includes a special condition as follows: Emblems: The Recipient agrees to use signs and materials that display both the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act) emblem and the Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) program emblem to identify its project(s) financed with Recovery Act funds that are provided by U.S. DOT in a manner consistent with Federal guidance, and to include this provision in any subagreements, leases, third party contracts, or other similar documents used in connection with its Recovery Act Project(s).’’

The Stimulus reportedly includes sign requirements that require “Funded By: American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, Barack Obama, President” or the Recovery Act logo that resembles the Obama 2008 campaign logo and purports to be “a symbol of President Obama’s commitment to the American people to invest their tax dollars wisely and put Americans back to work.”

Ditto that — there are a bunch of these stupid signs along San Antonio Road between Palo Alto and Mountain View, CA. The project was stalled for almost a year. Big “HURRAY for the Government” sign, but no action. Makes my blood boil every time I see the damn thing. I have dreams of blowing them up with a little Semtex.

the Obama 2008 campaign logo

Otherwise known as the "Obastika."

Obama: “These emblems are symbols of our commitment to you, the American people — a commitment to investing your tax dollars wisely, to put Americans to work doing the work that needs to be done. So when you see them on projects that your tax dollars made possible, let it be a reminder that our government — your government — is doing its part to put the economy back on the road of recovery.”

These DNC Election Campaign signs are popping up all over the Navajo reservation along with the other campaign signs. Nothing is being stimulated except the guys getting paid to go around putting up these moronic "stimulus" signs for their DNC massas.

Recession - Your neighbor loses their job.

Depression - You lose your job.

Recovery - Barack HUSSEIN Obama loses HIS job.

There’s a road/drainage improvement project along a road that I use frequently.

I was looking forward to having that section repaired as the pavement was awful and the road flooded with every heavy rain.

One day, I noticed that a couple of those signs went up.

Ever since, work seems to have stopped on that project, and the road surface is worse than when they started.

Thank you, King Baraq.

15 million for 17 jobs that probably weren’t really created, just “transferred.”

That was my first thought, were they really new jobs or were these 17 guys already working?

I have dreams of blowing them up with a little Semtex.

LOL! They probably purposely put them on cliffs or in precarious locations where we can't drive into them (with our gas guzzlers, hahha).

One wonders why there is no follow-up on these projects or anything from the state-run media.
