Hope, Change, Lies and more Lies – imaginary people have had their jobs saved/created
I’m beginning to wonder if Obama and members of his administration are going to have to have nose surgery to prevent us from seeing how much they have grown!
Here’s a stimulus success story: In Arizona’s 15th congressional district, 30 jobs have been saved or created with just $761,420 in federal stimulus spending. At least that’s what the Web site set up by the Obama administration to track the
$787 billion stimulus says.
There’s one problem, though: There is no 15th congressional district in Arizona; the state has only eight districts.
And ABC News has found many more entries for projects like this in places that are incorrectly identified.
Late Monday, officials with the Recovery Board created to track the stimulus spending, said the mistakes in crediting nonexistent congressional districts were caused by human error.
Yes, yes. It is the dumb American people that have made this mistake, not the Obama administration. So, what exactly did those dumb Americans do?
(Ed Pound, Communications Director for the Board) told ABC News the board receives declarations from the recipients – state governments, federal agencies and universities – of stimulus money about what program is being funded.
Wake me up in Time for Work
Michelle Malkin has an interesting article up today. First lets talk about jobs:
We’ve endured five months of bogus Obama math — most recently on display with Dear Leader’s reclassification of the United States as one of the largest Muslim countries in the world. The MSM was finally getting wise to the phony baloney stimulus numbers — and here comes the White House to dump a new load of numerical B.S. into the mix.
125,000 summer jobs for the yoots!
Presto-change-o!
What’s a yoot? Well, all you have to do is watch My Cousin Vinny for that answer: a “yoot” is 
“youths”(I love that movie!). So the stimulus money is going to help 125,000 youths find summer jobs? Well, only if they remember to wake up in time to go:
These economically disadvantaged young people will participate in summer-employment programs funded under the federal stimulus plan. The programs aim to get them ready for employment through training and job experience.
After work-readiness training, each participant will be placed in a summer job with a governmental or nonprofit agency. The programs are for people 16 to 24, with an emphasis on those who are not in school.
Robbin’ Hood ain’t giving to the poor
Who knew that the Robin Hood in Shrek came the closest to Obama’s version of Robbin’ Hood:
Ta, da, da, da, da, da, whoo
I steal from the rich and give to the needy
He takes a wee percentage, but I’m not greedy I rescue pretty damsels, man, I’m good
What a guy, ha-ha, Monsieur Hood
Break it down
From the AP:
The billions in transportation stimulus dollars that President Barack Obama promoted as a way to create jobs shortchange counties that need the work the most, an Associated Press analysis has found…..
One result among many: Elk County, Pa., isn’t receiving any road money despite its 13.8 percent unemployment rate. Yet the military and college community of Riley County, Kan., with 3.4 percent unemployment, will benefit from about $56 million to build a highway, improve an intersection and restore a historic farmhouse…..
The very promise that Obama made, to spend money quickly and create jobs, is locking out many struggling communities needing those jobs.
Imagine that. When the bill isn’t read and done too quickly, it just doesn’t work the way it is supposed to. Even a grade school child could have told the politicians that!
