Stimulus jobs overstated by thousands | Comcast.net


Nothing like lies being called 'mistakes'. If only Bush did this, we could have blamed it on him.Wasted money is wasted money.

All these numbers like "we saved 1.5 million jobs" or "We would have lost many more jobs if not for the stimulus" are pulled out of their @sses. Made up on the spot.

Note that the European economies are starting to grow again, while the US still falls with 1/2 million new unemployment insurance claims last month. The difference? The Euros have learned a bit from the past and they didn't raise taxes, lowered some and spent little stimulus money. The Rats are insane, never learn, and keep repeating the same failed policies.

I just read a story in the WSJ today about how the German economy is starting to rebound. Unemployment is lower than our Obanamy.

They spent 50 billion in stimulus including a cash for clunkers program.

What did the Dali Obama spend? 800 billion?
