Personally, my favorite part is the "Fraud, Waste and Abuse" section on the right:

"Report misuse of Recovery funds to Inspectors General Hotlines and find Whistleblower Information."

Take a look at what is in store for us in the world of political correctness gone haywire...


From Drudge:

Debbie McLucas is one of four hospital supervisors at Kindred Hospital in Mansfield. Last week, she hung a three-by-five foot American flag in the office she shares with the other supervisors.

When McLucas came to work Friday, her boss told her another supervisor had found her flag offensive. "I was just totally speechless. I was like, 'You're kidding me,'" McLucas said.

McLucas said the supervisor who complained has been in the United States for 14 years and is formerly from Africa. McLucas said that supervisor took down the flag herself.

What if it was the flag of Kenya that a white person found offensive? Would it have to be taken down?

It is being pressed upon us by liberals and other nations that we should feel ashamed of being American. We have arguably done as much for this world in our short lifespan as any other nation ever has.
