Left-Wing Groups Misused More than $750,000 in Stimulus Housing Grants

A pair of left-wing groups misused hundreds of thousands of dollars in stimulus grant funds, according to federal investigators, who questioned the validity of every dollar the two groups received.

In a report released Monday, Department of Housing and Urban Development’s inspector general raised concerns about $752,982 in stimulus disbursements to the now-defunct Prisoners Aid Association and the Baltimore-based Public Justice Center, citing shoddy accounting and violations of funding guidelines.

The two groups were sub-recipients of a stimulus grant designed to prevent homelessness and re-house the homeless. HUD gave more than $9.5 million to the city of Baltimore to administer the grant. The city contracted with United Way of Central Maryland, which selected the Public Justice Center and Prisoners Aid as sub-grantees.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

The only thing surprising about this is that it is only 750 thousand.

It wasn't monies "misused".  That's what it was for.  It was meant to feather the caps of leftists.
