1 in 6 “stimulus” jobs don’t exist. Why can’t liberals like Obama, reid, and Pelosi do simple math?
A Colorado company said it created 4,231 jobs with the help of President Barack Obama’s economic recovery plan. The real number: fewer than 1,000.
A child care center in Florida said it saved 129 jobs with the help of stimulus money. Instead, it gave pay raises to its existing employees.
Elsewhere in the U.S., some jobs credited to the stimulus program were counted two, three, four or even more times.
The government has overstated by thousands the number of jobs it has created or saved with federal contracts under the president’s $787 billion recovery program, according to an Associated Press review of data released in the program’s first progress report.

Now, now, that would be asking them to be honest, and we (almost) all know that honesty and far-left Liberalism are anathema to one another!

Wow.
I am impressed by your sources…

Once you get out of the morass of one size fits all political thinking, which means turning off the radio and throwing away all those useless thoughts is when you will start to think for yourself.
Until then, what you think is clever is extremist politics, which only the fringe latch onto.

Liberals can’t do proper math. Most are simply horrible at numbers. Which may conclude the reasons why liberals have the highest drop out rate. Other than if they go to Harvard, which we all know is very well corrupted.

The Stimulooting Bill is in many respects is like Enzyte…it is worthless and did not “raise” or “harden” our economy or jobs base. lol

Please show your research. Can you show me the facts behind your rant.? Didn’t think so.

They and their buddy Soros will say anything to keep pushing the country further and further left into Socialism. I don’t know who they expect to pay taxes if we are all sitting home collecting welfare and food stamps.

They can do simple math.
You lie!

Because they are Snakes ruling the planet. They don’t really care about anything by themselves. People who take sides are hurt. Because those who are governed are not people. They are heartless and bloodless vermins that use these people as temples. We are not being ruled by people, we are being ruled by vermins. Who are these people, but temples of their gods. Temples can do no wrong. Only those living in the temples can do wrong. What live in these temples are monstrous bacteria mimicking the actual people and only care about the other bacteria. Bacteria are thieves, prejudice, racists, and are the only nastiness going to live in the clouds when the temples rot and eaten by them.
We have been had. Why are we living under the sea, so called Red Sea and the bacteria of the earth hide that. Bacteria farm us, use us, make us sacrificial animals, and keep stealing temples from all over the sea to come and work for them. We don’t farm animals, bacteria farm animals using its temples the so-call humans, which are snakes living as worms in the temples. If it was supposed to be this way, would there be so much secrets. Only snakes and vermins are offended by honesty.
We are not being ruled by people. The shell, which is the body, deceives us. But no actual people can rule such a nasty and ugly world. Only monsters can rule monsters and the monsters are bacteria and its bloodless retinue, the moths, the roach, the millipedes, centipedes, snakes, dust mites, gnats, ants, no see-ums, and other such bloodless and heartless animals. They eat all that have blood and heart and control all that have blood and heart. The bloodless are ruling and eating those that have blood and heart. They have conquered us and farm us. They eat the pigs that can keep the planet clean from bacteria themselves. They eat the chickens that can keep the planet clean from worms and snakes, they eat the goats, cows, sheep, and other animals that can keep the planets clean from bugs. They bring pets from all over the world to be in our house so we can be contaminated by bacteria and be sick from diseases. Because we are not supposed to be living with pets which carry worms, danders, mites, ticks, flees, and other harmful bloodless and heartless bacteria.
So that is why they pretend not to understand. They make us prepare our dead for them to eat. Only bacteria go to heaven, which are the clouds and the wind is the one blowing them to the clouds where the nasty ones cause as much havoc as hurricanes, tornadoes, twisters and such.

You must not be college edumacated. Democratic math isn’t taught until one gradiates. Then it is easy to support statistics like these as being overwhelming successes. Remember; it isn’t the result, but the intent. Liberal policies always have those annoying little unintended consequences. But they mean well (that is a multiplying factor of ten by the way).
<<< —- Edumacated.

In Fridays news two different stimulus-funded job creation reports came out.In the first it was claimed that 650,000 jobs have been created so far.In the next one;only hours later it was then claimed that the number was over one million.It was in that story that I,too,saw the story of the child care center in Florida.The same story also quoted some government hack in Colorado as saying that the stimulus had saved the jobs of several thousand government employees.I wouldn’t call that job creation.
If we are to believe that the Obama plan is working;then why are the unemployment rates not seeing any drop?And why is Congress feeling the need to again extend the benefit period for unemployment compensation?
You asked about simple math.I wonder how the Democratic leadership lost track of 350,00 jobs it was supposed to have created.I also would like to hear from someone who actually had a job “created”for them by this package.
