Obama has used technology like no other president in the past. From his YouTube addresses to websites, he is always embracing technology rather than resisting it. With the signing of the "The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act" he has also launched a new website, Recovery.gov. As promised in his campaign, he vowed for transparency and this website is the fruit of his labor.
The website promises to help the American taxpayer track where his or her money is being spent, how it is being spent, and when it will be spent. No other president has used the internet in a similar manner to promote ideas and responsibility.
Regardless of your political views transparency in our government will help to keep them accountable for their actions. Check out the new site and make sure to give your feedback so that we all can stay informed.
















BTW, there's a typographical error:
- The website promises to help the American taxpayer track where his or her money is being spent, how it is being spent, and when it will be spent. No other president has used the internet in a similar manor to promote ideas and responsibility.
+ The website promises to help the American taxpayer track where his or her money is being spent, how it is being spent, and when it will be spent. No other president has used the internet in a similar manner to promote ideas and responsibility.
Ah, thanks. I didn't realize it existed outside the forums. In the future, I'll use that.
OMG give the man a break, his doing what no other president has ever done before, being more transparent.
Wasn't Obama trying to delay the rollout of Digital TV or something, correct me if I'm wrong.
As much as I'm getting tired of wating for the switch over... and ticked off it was delayed... there are people who have applied for the coupons and haven't gotten them yet. I do think these issues need to be resolved before the switch over occurs.
I'm already on 100% digital so it really doesn't effect me, but I am getting tired of seeing all the commercials and scrolls talking about the DTV switch. I can't wait for it to be over.
He's not really embracing Nasa's new technology either:

Satellite isn't gonna to be cuttin' it anymore; 5 years from now.
Grr, and I hate the price.
OBAMA PLEASE HELP US!
And the 1st one just happens to be the crew module.....
I'm a hella more proud to have him at the USA than to have Harper in my country.
Absolutely shameful. The Congress passed the largest economic bill in the history of our country (actually, of the world), and then not one member read the entire proposal. Sure, they will argue that they got the "gist" of it, and that the finer points had been argued, but when we are talking about a trillion dollars, you would think that they would give it more care.

This stimulus package ended up being $2,700.00 for every man, woman, and child in America. This equates to approximately $11,000.00 per (average) household. Our grandchildren will be paying off this debt. And for what? Many of the line items of this bill do nothing to generate jobs for the American people.
Stop with this spending please. Please sit down and think instead of "swift" actions.
Look at what the last bail out did to one company.

LOL like children who ask for a dollar for candy, and come back for more when they realize they can cry and whine to get more. It seems these guys are threatening congress with job cuts if they don't get their way, I mean their children need new Ferraris
The site sure is pretty though!
And you should blame your beloved Bush who dragged USA to the ******, it is funny that you are blaming Obama for this situation, and its even funnier than you'd think he can turn this situation upside down in only three weeks since he started.
Come back in two years, then you are allowed to whine like a mindless kid.
