    Default White House reports 1 million jobs saved

    WASHINGTON – White House economists said Thursday the Obama administration's recovery efforts have saved or created more than one million jobs so far.

    President Barack Obama has promised that his $787 billion stimulus plan will create or save 3.5 million jobs by the end of next year. But the economy has fared worse than the White House predicted when it pitched the jobs plan and officials have sought to beat back criticism that the results did not justify the huge combination of tax cuts, state aide and government spending.

    In its first report to Congress on the stimulus, the White House Council on Economic Advisers said the economy would have been far worse without the stimulus. The report was scheduled to be released Thursday afternoon. An official who reviewed it summarized its findings on condition of anonymity because it had not been released.

    Can it be proven either way on the jobs saved?
    Bush doubled the debt from 5 trillion to 10 trillion.
    Proving tax cuts work!

    Bush asked for and signed for the TARP money.
    The Republican senate leader backed Bush on this.

    Nope, it can't.
    McCain to Obama. "If you don't like our bill, send troops to help us."

    Obama, himself attempted to filibuster Justice Alito, who now sits on the Supreme Court.

    Putting out completely unconfirmable stats is a new level of deceptiveness.

    OMG this is the most ridiculous thing ever

    Because the economy declined less than expected in recent months, the White House said that translated to about one million jobs that would have been lost without government efforts.

    I can just imagine that soon we will hear that global temperatures would have reached a high of 112 degrees worldwide if not for the environmental steps taken by the Obama admin. in the past 9 months.....
    Its only a matter of waiting for the right time
    Put blame where it belongs
    ATF decided it could not regulate bump stocks during the Obama administration.
    It that time," the NRA wrote in a statement. "The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semiautomatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations."
    The ATF and Obama admin. ignored the NRA recommendations.
