I Hate The Media:

Cash-for-Clunkers is so messed up that even a liberal Democrat is calling it messed up.

Turns out car dealers can’t pry money out of the federal government to pay for the clunkers they took in trade. So Democrat congressman Joe Sestak of Pennsylvania is demanding “immediate action” from President Obama to correct the problem that Democrats themselves caused by rushing the Cash-for-Clunkers fiasco into law.

According to Sestak, only 2% of claims have been paid and 80% of the applications have been “rejected for minor oversight.”

Auto dealers across the fruited plain are pissed that the government’s Cash-for-Clunkers reimbursement payments are taking far longer than had been promised. Sestak says those complaints aren’t isolated incidents.

One billion dollars down. Another two billion to go. Ain’t big government great?
