House Republicans notice that President Obama discussed using returned TARP money to add to the “cash for caulkers” weatherization program, and observe that the initial “stimulus” (their scare quotes) bill included $5 billion for a Weatherization Assistance Grant Program and less than HALF of that money ($2.3 billion) has been spent at this point.

“Shouldn’t we finish spending the money Congress has already authorized before we spend billions on more spackle?” they ask, quite reasonably.
