Comments on: John Boehner video: Where are the jobs? http://www.cassyfiano.com/2009/07/john-boehner-video-where-are-the-jobs Smokin' Hot Commentary Mon, 05 Dec 2011 20:45:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Jessi Yeatman http://www.cassyfiano.com/2009/07/john-boehner-video-where-are-the-jobs/comment-page-1#comment-30459 Jessi Yeatman Wed, 25 Aug 2010 16:36:31 +0000 http://www.cassyfiano.com/?p=2638#comment-30459 This is from a report released by the CBO this afternoon. With it's combination of targeted tax cuts, government funded constrution jobs and energy investements this added 1.4 million to 3.3 million jobs from April to June lowering the unemployment rate by 0.7%. In addition the stimulus is believed to have boosted the GDP in the second quarter by 1.7 to 4.5 % So I guess in the next ten minutes all you armchair economist here will come up with something to dispute this too.

So really he has saved or created millions of jobs and we should be grateful. And the media will happily repeat this (actually they're already doing a great job putting a positive spin on things as is).

It's a giant WTF. I embedded this video, too, but I think it’s telling that the GOP can’t seem to leverage state governments. It’s a giant WTF.

Then the feminists got all riled up and said that it would only create jobs for men, and where were all the jobs for women, bla bla bla... And now we have more figures showing that it hasn't created squat and the US is still losing jobs. Ban outsourcing. Stop sending jobs to China too.
