Can Acronyms have Accents?

This is from the WisPolitics Budget Blog:

According to figures released today from the House Appropriations and Transportation and Infrastructure Committees, and the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, Wisconsin could receive more than $3.2 billion from the American Economic Recovery and Reinvestment Act under the proposal before the U.S. House of Representatives.
The American Economic Recovery and Reinvestment Act - AERRA. Sounds like one of the Kennedy boys saying "error."

Ironic, from one viewpoint. Fitting, from another.
