Abusive Stimuli – Dem districts receive over two times as much money as Republican districts

It won’t come as a shock to too many people, but Pelosi and company, along with the Obama administration approving grant requests, are funneling money into Democratic districts and over twice the rate of the Republican districts.

From the National Review Online, comes details of this latest abuse of power by the Democrats:

Second: On average, Democratic districts received one-and-a-half times as many awards as Republican ones. Democratic districts also received two-and-a-half times more stimulus dollars than Republican districts ($122,127,186,509 vs. $46,139,592,268). Republican districts also received smaller awards on average. (The average dollars awarded per Republican district is $260,675,663, while the average dollars awarded per Democratic district is $471,533,539.)

ALLAHPUNDIT of Hot Air says that on top of the the Democratic cronyism, the ‘questionable’ jobs saved numbers are declining, just at the time when Vice President Biden claimed we were supposed to see the greatest impact:

Not only that, but the number of jobs “created or saved” has actually declined in the last quarter, leaving the amount of money spent per job at a cool … $286,000. As for the accusation of political favoritism, I’ll defer to de Rugy since she’s the economist.

This latest abuse of power likely won’t surprise too many Americans.  The Gateway Pundit today reported on a new Gallup poll that shows 53% of Americans believe that the Democratic leaders in Congress abused their power in jamming Obamacare through, while only 40% believed it was an appropriate use of power.

So Mr. President, is this what you meant when you said you would change the way Washington works?
