• Stimulus Jobs Overstated by Thousands
  Oct 29, 2009 12:00 PM

  The original claim was that the $787 billion stimulus package created 30,000 jobs. That number has been reduced to 25,000 - and that may even be too high. By the way, since Obama took office, we have lost 3.6 Million jobs. Some stimulus, huh?? http://blog.heritage.org/2009/10/15/white-house-36-million-jobs-lost-is-quite-positive/
