Transparency: Stimulus site gets 3,000 hits per second

Any physician who peered into Georgie's big ear canals could confirm that the only thing transparent about Bush was his skull:

The website President Obama said will allow Americans to monitor the spending of the $787 billion recovery plan is generating intense traffic, a senior administration official said Wednesday.

Peter Orszag, Obama's director of the Office of Management and Budget, said recovery.gov received 3,000 hits a second upon its launch last week. [...]

"We have to go beyond normal procedures to a higher level of transparency," Orszag said.

Biden, who called the effort to track the money "unprecedented," also said he would be "a pain in the neck" and "intrusive" in making sure the money is spent wisely.

But that's cool, V.P. Joe, because it hurts so good.
