I don't remember any other administration ever counting “jobs saved” as a statistic. This is a load of BS.

[Future Snake Eater]

This was inevitable spin as soon as the stimulus package was going to “save OR create” jobs. I’m surprised this hasn’t been touted sooner.

[Pearls Before Swine]

Imagine, a few years from now, having “author of WH report showing stimulus saved 3 MM jobs” on your resume.

[SECURE AMERICA]

The Goverment thinks we are all idiots.
If the unemployment rate is the same now as it was then and you include the thousands that simply dropped out of the system because it UIC ran out then it is not possible that any jobs were created and unlikely that any jobs were saved. But don’t worry many sheep will buy the Goverments bullshit.

RE :”(Reuters) - Hoping to lift sagging confidence in President Barack Obama’s economic leadership, the White House will make the case on Wednesday that his policies are creating jobs and spurring private investment. A report to be unveiled at 11 a.m. EDT will estimate that Obama’s $862 billion economic stimulus package, which passed last year, has saved or created 3 million jobs and is on track to meet its goal of 3.5 million jobs by the end of this year.”

Another phony report, just like the CBO scores on Obama-care. Reminds me of Orwell's 1984,

When you give a drunk $20, how many jobs do you save?

The drunk’s employment status doesn’t necessarily change, be it employed or not.
The liquor store clerk’s employment status doesn’t change, but his position is sustained in some small part.

The Obama administration takes credit for both as “jobs saved”.........

Is this the American Government YOU want?

[Oldeconomybuyer]

These jobs were “created or saved” in China, right?

[relictele]

Hoping to lift sagging confidence in President Barack Obama's economic leadership, the White House will make the case on Wednesday that his policies are creating jobs and spurring private investment stack falsehoods like cordwood.

[ConservativeDude]

they must be included those who get unemployment payment extensions as among those whose “jobs” were “saved”

[RexBeach]

There is positively NO WAY this can be measured reliably.

This assertion by The Obamaniacs is, at best, spin.

More than likely, it is baloney.

[Buckeye Battle Cry]

They are beyond using any pretense of truthfullness in their propaganda. It’s just straight 100% lies.

[Oceander]

I wonder, are they taking any "credit" for the number of jobs they've killed off in the Gulf?

[algernonpj]

Will the report say jobs for whom?

8 of 10 Stimulous Dollars Go Overseas

Many of the 'Green' jobs are going to China

[lacrew]

Even if this were true, wouldn’t the tab for each job be over a quarter million dollars?

[csmusaret]

If the only criterion is “I still have my job” I wonder why he stopped at 3 million. Why not claim he saved 10 million jobs? 15 million? 20?

[DustyMoment]

White House says stimulus saved 3 million U.S. jobs

Uh-huh. And I saved 40 head of cattle from slaughter by reducing my intake of steak!!

[catnipman]

Yep, and also the Obama Economics Institute (OEI) just geometrically proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that without the declaration of Recovery Summer! the U.S. economy would be in a depression, rather than a simple recession. The OEI now scores the Obamunists as having prevented two depressions in a row within a period of just 14 months, a new world record!

[rlmorel]

The major problem we face here, folks, is that the White House releases this, the media parrots it unquestioningly, and a large percentage of citizens (some who vote) snap it up and absorb it as fact.

We sneer at propaganda, but they apparently don’t.
