Obama doing more great work for government transparency
This is fantastic.
Senators Obama and Coburn have introduced the Strengthening Transparency and Accountability in Federal Spending Act of 2008 (S. 3077), which would modify their 2006 transparency act. That first bill created USASpending.gov, a searchable web site of government outlays.
…
The new bill would expand the scope of information available via USASpending.gov, adding information about federal contracts, leases, and audit disputes, among other areas.
At some point, “Real” conservatives (even a lot of (most?) Reagan-style conservatives) are going to wake up and realize that Obama is doing radical work to make government spending more transparent and accountable, and that’s a GOOD thing for more efficient government!
