WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama is trumpeting a new White House estimate that his top economist calls "stunning": His stimulus plan has already created or saved up to 2 million jobs.
The analysis is part of the administration's quarterly report to Congress on the controversial $787 billion package of spending and tax cuts he signed weeks after taking office.
Obama planned to highlight the report Wednesday during a visit to a Lanham, Md., training center for union electricians that specializes in "green" technology.
Republicans have denounced the stimulus plan as an expensive flop,
An "estimate" is like that old saying about opinions and assholes. Everyone has one.
It doesn't have to be accurate.
Jeez, President Obama orders his assistant to "estimate" that the stimulus plan created "up to" 2 million jobs and we're supposed to a) believe that it is true and b) fall down on our knees and worship President Obama?
Bah!!
Oh by the way, I estimate that the Ravens will beat the Colts this weekend by "at least" seven points.
