Stimulus Jobs: ‘Saved or Created’ or Imagined?
Posted on | February 17, 2010 | 5 Comments
We’re paying them to pretend they’re creating jobs:
Though unemployment is at 9.7 percent, and just six percent of Americans think the government has created jobs, President Barack Obama will hold a White House reception on Wednesday to mark the one-year anniversary of signing the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, better known as the economic stimulus bill.
Meanwhile, administration officials, including Vice President Joe Biden and cabinet secretaries, will travel to 35 locations across the country this week to promote the $787 stimulus, which was designed to revive the economy – a reported $272 billion of the $787 billion has been spent since the bill became law in February 2009.
Administration officials have insisted that the legislation is on course to “save or create” 3 million jobs. However, more than 2.65 million jobs have been lost since the passage of the legislation, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics . . .
Meanwhile, 52% of Americans say Obama doesn’t deserve re-election, which means that 48% of Americans need to be whomped upside the head.

Um… this is Barack Obama, who, like a sorority girl, sees any excuse for a party and takes it.
