• Fox News (10/16/09) Lawmakers Eye Untapped Stimulus Funds, as Obama Proposes New Spending.  After President Obama called on Congress to approve $250 payments to Social Security recipients to make up for no cost-of-living increase, House Minority Leader John Boehner said he'd be "happy" to support it -- so long as Congress takes the money out of the stimulus package.

A chart on the Recovery.gov Web site that tracks spending shows that just 22 percent of the stimulus has been paid out. A White House official said in an e-mail to Foxnews.com that 43 percent, or $339 billion, has been obligated through spending and tax relief.
// After Congress settled on a unified stimulus package back in February, the Congressional Budget Office estimated that the bulk of the money would be spent in fiscal 2010, which started Oct. 1. [FY2010: 10/1/09 – 9/30/10]  The report estimated that more than 90 percent of it would be spent by the end of fiscal 2011, meaning the stimulus still has a ways to go before running its projected course.  [FY2011: 10/1/10 – 9/30/11]
The White House official said any diversion of funds would require congressional action, but noted the administration is ahead of schedule to pay out 70 percent of funds by September 2010. The official said much of the remaining funding already is designated, with more grant awards to be announced in the coming months and about $200 billion in "promised" tax relief still to be committed.

This week Rep. Paul Ryan, the ranking Republican on the House Budget Committee, spoke, in an interview with the Daily Beast's Lloyd Grove, of the real-world consequences of what Washington is on the verge of doing. He said he believes the Baucus plan is "the absolute height of fiscal irresponsibility," adding that "the shame of it all is we could actually fix what's broken in health care without breaking what's working, and without creating a huge new entitlement program that will accelerate the bankruptcy of this country."
He does not believe the Baucus bill would reduce the deficit over the next 10 years. "Congress has a pattern of passing cuts to pay for bills and then restoring the cuts once the bill has been passed. It's crystal-clear to me that the 'pay-fors' in this bill will not survive and we will have created a huge deficit-funded liability." He spoke of the likely end of Medicare Advantage, the government-subsidized private insurance program on which millions rely to supplement their coverage. He said the Obama White House has even forbidden its officials from discussing that program's fate under various health-care bills. He charged that Democrats "hate it anyway, because it's private, so they are killing a program that they never liked in the first place."

The Pentagon is speeding up delivery of a colossal bomb designed to destroy hidden weapons bunkers buried underground and shielded by 10,000 pounds of reinforced concrete.
Call it Plan B for dealing with Iran, which recently revealed a long-suspected nuclear site deep inside a mountain near the holy city of Qom.
The 15-ton behemoth - called the "massive ordnance penetrator," or MOP - will be the largest non-nuclear bomb in the U.S. arsenal and will carry 5,300 pounds of explosives. The bomb is about 10 times more powerful than the weapon it is designed to replace.
The Pentagon has awarded a nearly $52 million contract to speed up placement of the bomb aboard the B-2 Stealth bomber, and officials say the bomb could be fielded as soon as next summer.
