Obama voodoo strikes again. “Created or saved jobs” is yet another case of the President waving his hands in front of the people to hypnotize them into believing his lies.
According to the Investor’s Business Daily article of April 21, 2010 “Lying About Jobs“,
Without stimulus, we were told, there would be 133.9 million jobs in the U.S. in the fourth quarter of 2010. That’s the baseline. With stimulus, we would have almost 3.7 million more than that.
Today, there are 129.7 million jobs. The folks at BigGovernment.com looked at the data and found that to justify the administration’s current claim of 2.8 million jobs saved or created, they had to lower the baseline by 7 million jobs to only 126.9 million.
This is a little like a football team making a first down, not by advancing the ball 10 yards, but by having the referees moving the first-down marker.
It seems pretty obvious by now that the American people are no longer drinking the Kool-Aid, and now seem to agree with those who pointed out the voodoo long ago.
Liberals talk about “saved or created jobs” at their peril. They so discredit themselves.
