President Warns Mayors Public Is Watching

President Barack Obama is sternly urging mayors of U.S. cities to be careful in their spending.

President Barack Obama is sternly urging mayors of U.S. cities to be careful in their spending, saying Friday morning, "The American people are watching.” The President went on to tell the U.S. Conference of Mayors meeting Washington that the $787 billion dollar economic package will help struggling cities. But, he reiterated that both Washington and the mayors have a responsibility to spend the money wisely so that the American people can regain the confidence of elected officials. "If a federal agency proposes a project that will waste that money, I will not hesitate to call them out on it, and put a stop to it. I want everyone here to be on notice that if a local government does the same – I will call them out on it as well, and use the full power of my office and our administration to stop it." After the President addressed the mayors, he stepped off the stage to shake hands with the local officials.

  1. I heard a couple of days ago that one of the beaches are going to dig up their concrete boardwalk and replace it with boards. This, in my opinion, is a waste of our money.

  3. The only ones getting the money in Maryland that I saw on the list were Annapolis and Baltimore. Didn't Barrie put in for anything?

  4. Blah blah blah blah! Just more empty talk from the professional liar!
    He also said there wouldn't be any earmarks or wastefull spending in the bill.
    Are you Obama fans sorry yet, or will the fall of the United States be what convinces you?
    Next will be the censorship of talk radio, and the internet. Then a tax on air. (carbon tax)
    Then they will outlaw your firearms.
    When will you wake up?

  5. You can blame Obama all you want. He just signed tax cuts like he promised.

    The entire world economy is in the pits, not just the U.S.'s. What do people think, that Obama waves his magic pen twice and all is better?

    At least HE doesn't think that.

  6. These liberal bozos forget that criminals are NOT going to go to the store and fill out the proper paperwork when they purchase or steal their firearms. Nor will they obtain the required $1,000,000insurance policy this bill requires if passed. If passed, and if you own a gun but fail to get the required insurance, you'll be committing a felony.

    I am telling you, the secular-progressives, with their support staff the ACLU and the main stream media, are quietly pushing us down the path to Socialism. While we're being dummy-downed and enamored watching American Idol, America, and everything that made America great, is being dismantled. Obama's not going to attack the Second Amendment, he and his wacko socialists will just make it impossible to own any firearms. Wake up America!!!

  8. The U.S. was falling before Obama even got elected.

    Before you blaming a middle class Obama, take a look at Bushie and how he and his family made and kept their money.

    Do you think it was just good bidding that Dick Cheney's Halliburton got the Iraq contracts?

    And all the GOPers who opposed the stimulus are lining up for their earmarks. They can try to avoid responsibility even as they suck up to the troughs.

    Swear to God, if a rustler let your horse out of the corral, you people would shoot the horse for being outside of the fence when he was trying to go back in it.

  9. There was an article in yesterdays Baltimore Sun about how Obama "snubbed" Baltimore Mayor Sheila Dixon and revoking an invitation he extended to her for some offical mayors event in DC.
