ACORN funding is back in.

…Millions of dollars to ACORN!

Michelle Malkin reported on the recent additions to the Spendulus Bill after democrats held their closed-door meeting yesterday:

- $9 billion for school construction was added back in (originally cut by Nelson-Collins)

· $5 billion increase for the state fiscal stabilization fund (originally cut by Nelson-Collins), making it a grand total of $53.6 billion

· $2 billion for neighborhood stabilization program, money for groups like ACORN

· $1 billion added back for Prevention & Wellness Programs, including STD education

· Federal Coordinating Council for Comparative Effectiveness Research was added back in, leading Americans down the path towards healthcare rationing (63 patient advocacy groups signed a letter voicing their concerns with this provision)

(BUT, NOT INFRASTRUCTURE)

· Money for highways and bridges was cut by $1 billion from the House-passed level

Also, Drudge is reporting:

Pelosi’s endangered salt marsh harvest mouse is slated for $30M slice of cheese.

And, Majority Leader Harry Reid is getting a Vegas train.
