Bad is good. Quagmire is progress. And jobs destroyed are jobs “created or saved,” says the Obama administration. A political columnist points out that “one ought to recognize that the present political chaos is connected with the decay of language.”
The writer was George Orwell, adding that “political language — and with variations this is true of all political parties, from Conservatives to Anarchists — is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.”
Wind power turns out to be central to Obamathink in more ways than one. The chosen one promised that the power of wind would bring jobs, and so it did: Joe Biden’s.

1) When will pigs fly?
2) When will hell freeze over?
When will Obama stop lying?
When his lips stop moving.
Oh, what was the "stimulus" for? Multiple purposes - pay off '08 contributors and from the remainder, create a gigantic slush fund to pay off '10/'12 voters.
All of the above contributes to future inflation, that will lead to new "problems to solve".
Why should O lie, he has most of the msm to swear to his every lie and misrepresentation.
Notice how suddenly all the msm reporting on how much better the economy is doing.

Alan Blinder said the GDP is growing, but jobs are “still shrinking and are likely to shrink for a while yet.”
Blinder said that “despite the fact that we are looking at an absolutely horrendous long-term fiscal outlook,”
he advocates at least a modest increase in the deficit, targeted on the creation of jobs.

Speaker Pelosi. Good afternoon. We just had a very instructive meeting with some leading economists about the number one subject on the minds of the American people: jobs. Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
I am pleased that we had the benefit of the thinking of Dr. Mark Zandi, Dr. Alan Blinder, Bob Kuttner, Heather Boushey, Bill Hambrecht, and Allen Sinai.

Alan Blinder.... but at least a modest increase in the deficit is targeted very strongly on job creation. Not a scatter shot, but targeted very strongly on job creation would be appropriate.

Democrat’s own Economist suggesting ‘tax Cuts for the Rich’, Pelosi didn’t get it, Democrats didn’t get it. State Run Media didn’t run it-don’t fit their agenda
That’s his real job so he won’t.
Not even after he’s out of office and a private Pain-In-Our-A**.
