The White House Doesnt Want You To See This

California Conservative, 10/22/09 

Dave Camp, the GOP Ranking Member on the House Ways and Means Committee, issued this devastating report on job creation attributable to the ARRA legislation. In state after state, the Obama administrations projections werent just off but off by orders of magnitude.

Heres a partial list of the worst projections:

California projected gain: 396,000, California Actual: LOST 336,400
Arizona projected gain: 70,000, Arizona Actual: LOST 77,300
Colorado projected gain: 59,000, Colorado Actual: LOST 58,900
Georgia projected gain: 106,000, Georgia Actual: LOST 131,000
Illinois projected gain: 148,000, Illinois Actual: LOST 148,000
Florida projected gain: 206,000, Florida Actual: LOST 165,100
Michigan projected gain: 109,000, Michigan Actual: LOST 137,300
Nevada projected gain: 34,000, Nevada Actual: LOST 33,800
Ohio projected gain: 133,000, Ohio Actual: LOST 97,500
Pennsylvania projected gain: 143,000, Pennsylvania Actual: LOST 103,200

These are just some of the worst miscalculations. Read the entire list but only if youve taken your blood pressure medication.

One oddity stands out in the report, namely North Dakota. They were predicted to gain 8,000 jobs. They didnt meet that mark but they gained 1,800 jobs. It couldnt have anything to do with their tax cuts, could it? Surely, thats coincidental, isnt it King?

At some point, thoughtful people will reject President Obamas wisecracks about not following the failed policies of the last eight years because theyll judge President Obama on his economic failures. Theyll notice that his economic accomplishments will consist of, in his eyes, the failed stimulus bill. Other than that, what can he point to as an accomplishment?

He certainly cant point to his budget. Why would President Obama highlight a budget that includes trillion dollar deficits for as far as the eye can see? If President Obama were to highlight his budget, hed be handing GOP strategists a powerful campaign theme on a silver platter. (Just imagine the TV ads showing President Obama talking about the green shoots hes seeing in the economy, then showing the annual deficits in bold red letters, followed by VP Biden talking about how the stimulus is working better than he could’ve imagined with headlines of monthly unemployment figures scrolling across the screen.)

and now today BO's math wizards claim they have saved 1,500,000 jobs. Only BO can count ass backward and have most of the media repeat and repeat ...

Just how can anybody say how many jobs they have "saved"? Did they query all the employers in America and have them say, "I would have laid off Joe but the economic stimulus plan gave us the extra sales we needed"? How can anyone know that for sure? It's all a bunch of bull snot!

Whether or not the use of non-governmental email accounts ultimately breaches the Presidential Records Act, it virtually assures an incomplete historical record of the Bush presidency. The only way accurate history can be written is if the full records are available to evaluate.

America is screwed. It's not Obama's policies that are killing you, its the policies of the elite. You people act like you have a democracy with 2 parties when in actual fact you have a 1 party dictatorship. Both the Democrats and the Republicans, both Obama and Bush, both the Senate and the Congress all work for the same people and you morons all argue with each other about being Liberal or Conservative while they screw over all of you. You have people screaming socialism, which is hilarious cause I would imagine 95% of Americans have no idea what socialism even is. Most of the Western world is socialist like France, Canada, Norway, Britain, Sweden, Finland, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland, Belgium and so on. All these countries are better off economically and socially than the United States. They all have a better standard of living, better health care, lower infant mortality rate, a higher life expectancy, less crime, less people in prison (America has more people in prison per capita than any country on earth). My point is America is becoming a facist state and not a socialist state. If you became socialist the poor and the middle class would be better off. The government nationalizing everything and putting in place draconian laws is called facism not socialism. I long for the day when you sheeple wake up and realize your government hasn't been for the people in at least 50 years maybe longer. The problem is that your all too stupid and too lazy to do anything about it and by the time you do it'll be too late. Have fun as a 3rd world country morons.

MARK!! Nicely said!!!

Thank you Mark I agree. They have the people fooled. Most people think its two different parties. It's NOT. Its 1 BIG party working for the same GUY...MONEY. This is the reason why I DONT VOTE. You get two "different" versions of the SAME BS!!

Some of us are trying to do something about this. If we just lay down and take it the entire world is going to fall to enslavement. America is the battleground where the entire agenda of the new world order is going to be fought. There are many people awake to what the elites are doing(not enough by far), but those of us who are awake are working our asses off to inform the rest of the population. The new world order can be defeated if we believe in ourselves and take action. All hope is not lost... yet.
Ben
And btw, keep thinking your safe in another country. This is going to be a global financial meltdown. You better be ready to fight for your freedom as well. Knowing what is going on is only the first step in solving the problem. We need to get active.

I agree with Mark because he's right! We Americans lost the wheel a long time ago. It's funny that we'll be the first to complain about something and the last to do something to correct what we're complaining about...Amazing. Our Government and the cronies running it, not to mention the corporations their in bed with, are destroying our once prosperous and respected country. Wake up America! Listen to your guts, see with your eyes what's being perpetrated against us all and let's not stand for it anylonger.

Not exactly fair and balancedThe documents seem very one sided. They discuss a potential downside of global warming in great detail, And Termites can damage not just the construction of your home but also the items in it.

Mark: If you believe that Socialism is the do all and end all of the saving graces then you are sadly misinformed. And, if you believe that all of those countries that you mentioned that are Socialistic are better off than we are then you are delusional. I believe that it was Margaret Thatcher, (England) who stated that Socialism is successful until you RUN OUT OF OTHER PEOPLE'S MONEY! Please stay out of my pocket to support the so called poor that refuse to get off their collective asses and take personal responsibility for their circumstances. And, as far as the "Prison Systems" go, just who are these people who make up the majority of prisoners? Generational welfare recipients, all thanks to the Democrats, who just love to buy their votes! You do not have a case, Mark. You just are too damn young to do anything but complain. If you want to change things, don't throw out the baby with the bathwater. I believe that "CHANGING" things, hasn't worked out very well, now has it! We need to step back and not expect the system to be so damned perfect and start to give it a good old fashioned pruning, but don't start a whole new landscaping project! Let's just try and stick with our Constitution and make this great Republic work!

The Banksters have controlled America since at least 1913 with the creation of the Federal Reserve Counterfeiting Club of Elites. The tyrannical Fed is responsible for ALL the wars and probably most of the "terrorism" (like Oklahoma and the WTC attacks). Without the Fed, war would cost the American taxpayer so much we would never stand for it. Whodda thunk that the monied plutocrats would be running our Presidents and Congress? Stop voting Democrat and Republican! Audit the Federal Reserve by supporting H.R. 1207 and then End the Fed! It's time to take America back! Call your Senators and DEMAND they support H.R. 1207 without attachments or changes!

Well, that's funny indeed! Projected GAIN of 1.3M and real 1.2 LOSS. Numbers in USA are patent lunacy. Only a total idiot could still be believing any of the USA BS, be it numbers or any other deranged prattle. It's all summed up on insurrectiondaily dot blogspot dot com rather amusingly. It's over, but who can argue that USA doesn't deserve it?
