It's Our Damned Money

The launch of Wikicountability.org will reveal: "That MJ Hawkeye is more than a little torqued off. The ad with "Alzheimer Andy" Griffith that ran on every TV network cost us, the taxpayer, millions of dollars to make and produce. If dreams could come true I'd have Howie Morris, alias Earnest T. Bass do some serious ass kickin' on Ol' Andy. I'M PO'D about this!

- The Andy Griffith ad promoting Obamacare last year cost taxpayers $3.66 million – including $404,000 in production – according to records obtained from HHS in a FOIA request earlier this year.

- Labor Secretary Hilda Solis met with union bosses or attended their events on more than 40 separate occasions from February 2009-January 2010.

- Consumer Financial Protection Bureau head Elizabeth Warren made time for dinner with liberal journalists including American Prospect’s Bob Kuttner, Mother Jones’s David Corn and DailyKos.com’s Markos Moulitsas.
