From Obama's SOTU: Because of the steps we took, there are about two million Americans working right now who would otherwise be unemployed.

Actually, Obama said at the time that if the Stimulus package failed to pass, unemployment could go as high as 9%. But, he assured us, with the Stimulus package, unemployment would be kept below 8%.

Well, he got the Stimulus he wanted, and unemployment went over 10%. And now he claims that he saved two million jobs through his efforts.

He is just a BS artist. The president has no interest in telling us the truth -- he's just trying to work the audience like a demogogue.

The stimulus bill is the reason why we’re not losing 800,000 jobs a month like we were a year ago

How did they come up with this number? And why aren’t folks at FOX asking this question?
