Let your distinquish quests give you the $475.000 dollars to pretty up your museum, you phoney baloney!

Don't use my tax dollars for your pet project!

Public taxpayer money from

the Federal Stimulus Package Bill to the tune of $475.000 should not be given to spruce up the Italian American Museum in Little Italy. I ask Congressman Gary Ackerman & Jerold Nadler (sponsors of the bill) to not give one penny to this discriminatory non profit organization.

I am very disappointed in my representative Congressman Ackerman & Congressman Jerold Nadler from N.Y.C York to hand over $475,000 of our taxpayer's money to  the Italian American Museum in Little Italy. Every taxpayer in New York State should protest to their elected official's in NYC against this wasteful use of tax payer's money.

President Obama should not allow any public money to go to this museum, especially during these tough economic crisis.

According to The New York Post.

New York got its share of earmarks, among them $475,000 to "improve and expand" the Italian American Museum in Little Italy. The project was pushed by New York Reps. Gary Ackerman and Jerrold Nadler. The latter touted it, among other earmarks, on his Web site.

Every day above ground is a good day Joe.
