You voted for change? You got the shaft!

Anybody still fooled by Barack Obama? Change? How about more of the same. NOTHING has changed in Washington. Your tax dollars are being wasted on pork and other corporate welfare. You voted for change? You got the shaft! Congratulations.

From a story posted at CNSNews.com:

Among the 3,266 entries in a government database detailing to-date spending under the Democrats' stimulus law are expenditures for concrete outhouses, "deli-sliced" turkey, and hotel bills.

Passed in February, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (AARA) – also called the "stimulus package" -- was sought and signed into law by President Obama, who declared at the time, "We have begun the essential work of keeping the American dream alive in our time."

Among the more than 3,000 projects, purchases, and grants made with stimulus money obtained through the Federal Procurement Data System, some of the projects that have contributed to keeping the American dream alive include:

- $2.2 million to the Seneca Foods Corporation in Marion, NY for "fruit, canned;" the same company received another contract worth $196,797 also, for "fruit, canned"

- $4.8 million for "frozen, sliced ham"

- $5.3 million for "deli-style turkey breast" from the Jennie-O Turkey company

- $5.5 million in "canned fruit" from the Del Monte Corporation

- $16.8 million in "canned pork" from Lakeside Foods Inc

Among the many things that have been built with stimulus money so far are:

- $971,711.42 to "replace pond liners" at the Garrison Dam National Fish Hatchery in Cole Harbor, N.D.

- $193,077 for a "double-vault toilet building" at the Hoyer Campground in Spokane, Wash.

- $487,944 for "toilet buildings and vaults" in the Pike and San Isabel National Forests

- $254,000 for "pre-fabricated restroom facilities" in Atlanta, Ga.

- $17,110 in hotel bills at a Marriott Hotel in Arlington, Va., for the Employment Standards Administration’s annual "Prevailing Wage Conference."

- $1.8 million for the "renovation of Slate Hill Barn and Hay Shed" in Front Royal, Va. According to the database the money was requested by the Smithsonian Institution.
