It has been a while since GorT took a shot at the whole Stimulus funding and Joe Biden’s favorite “number” on the internet: recovery.gov.  The ARRA (American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009) requires the Chairperson of the Council of Economic Advisors to submit quarterly reports to the House and Senate Appropriations committees to include the impact of the funds expended, estimated economic growth and other indicators of economic impacts.  Alan Krueger is the current Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisors and since assuming that role (which is appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate) on November 3, 2011, he has failed to submit a single report to either body as is required by law.  Austan Goolesbee was the former chairman from September 2010 to August 2011 (remember him?) and he was the last to submit one of these reports for the period ending on June 30, 2011. 

As Jeffrey Anderson posits over in The Weekly Standard, it is entirely possible that these reports stopped because people (including your Gormogons) were using the data from the reports to demonstrate what a huge waste the (with props to ‘Puter, who is always right) Giant Pork-fill Technicolor Stimulus Bill was and is. 

Of course, the administration will repeatedly say that the Stimulus is a success and continues to work.  It’s too bad they can’t follow their own laws.

GorT

GorT is an eight-foot-tall robot from the 51ˢᵗ Century who routinely time-travels to steal expensive technology from the future and return it to the past for retroinvention. The profits from this pay all the Gormogons’ bills, including subsidizing this website. Some of the products he has introduced from the future include oven mitts, the Guinness widget, Oxy-Clean, and Dr. Pepper. Due to his immense cybernetic brain, GorT is able to produce a post in 0.023 seconds and research it in even less time. Only ’Puter spends less time on research. GorT speaks entirely in zeros and ones, but occasionally throws in a ڭ to annoy the Volgi. He is a massive proponent of science, technology, and energy development, and enjoys nothing more than taking the Czar’s more interesting scientific theories, going into the past, publishing them as his own, and then returning to take credit for them. He is the only Gormogon who is capable of doing math. Possessed of incredible strength, he understands the awesome responsibility that follows and only uses it to hurt people.
