Jobs created and Jobs saved, how about the Obama people created a lie, got caught by the GAO and think they'll be saved if they continue lying.

There was an article about the faulty jobs saved/created statistics that the Obama people constantly refer to in an effort to further confuse and convince the American people that they have lit the fuse under rocket ship we call our flagging economy when in reality much of what they are pumping out is pure unadulterated gas from the south end of a north bound Bull. There was a report out this week stating that the GAO or one of the few other offices that the President and his people can't manipulate the number in, stated that the administration has been overstating the numbers for jobs saved/created by a pretty significant numbers. The example used was a district where they claimed there were quite a few jobs saved/created when in reality the district doesn't even exist. If that wasn't enough, when the government office checked they found out that this 'phenomenon' as we'll call it exists all over the country. They were unable to give exact numbers other than to say the number is large.

There have also, been several other reports out this past week that put much of what the government is saying about jobs in jeopardy. One report stating that about a quarter of the jobs that are currently in the U.S. are jobs that can be outsourced and if that's true it will more than likely happen when the taxes the Obama people are planning to effect are levied. The other stat that is difficult to figure is the productivity reports. The administration claims that the economy is surging ahead, then fairly reliable sources will quickly tell you that what is actually happening is that companies are only replacing inventories that they have to replenish to stay in business, who are you going to believe? I hate to sound like a pessimist and I would like to see our economy move ahead positively but I'm sticking with the economists for the time being and their stance that this is not anywhere close to what the White House claims.
