Press Virtually Ignores Joe Biden's '400 Jobs Lost a Day' Louisiana Whopper
Newsbusters ^ | 3/3/09 | Tom Blumers

Did you hear the one about Joe Biden claiming that Louisiana under Governor Bobby Jindal is losing 400 jobs a day?

Probably not. A search at the Washington Post on "Biden 400 jobs Louisiana" (not in quotes) came back with no results. No relevant results were returned with the same searches done at the New York Times and the LA Times.

The math-challenged Biden, who infamously said during the presidential campaign that the word "jobs" has three letters (maybe you don't know about that one either), made this false claim Wednesday morning, and almost no one noticed.

Joe Biden is in the basement with the Crazy Aunt! If this was Dan Quayle his head would be on a spike by now.

A local television station’s article says employment in Louisiana actually went up in December.

Joe's a mere piker. Pelosi says we're losing 500 million jobs a month.

Biden should open up a Burger King. He produces whoppers with about the same frequency.

The key phrase is "seasonally adjusted"...unemployment claims have soared.

It would be nice if they would actually do their job, wouldn't it?

Can you imagine if a Republican had said “Stand up Chuck” to a wheel chair bound man?

Can you imagine if a Republican had said that JOBS was a three letter word?

Can you imagine if a Republican had said that you can’t go in a Dunkin Donuts or a 7-11 unless you have a slight Indian accent?

Can you imagine if a Republican had said that it’s time to be patriotic, time to be part of the deal, when referring to tax increases?
