Mark’s Soap Box

Jobs “saved or created” in NON-existent Congressional Districts. I wonder if District 9 received any Obama Stimulus money?

Here’s a stimulus success story: In Arizona’s 15th congressional district, 30 jobs have been saved or created with just $761,420 in federal stimulus spending. At least that’s what the Web site set up by the Obama administration to track the $787 billion stimulus says.

Discrepancies on government web site call into question stimulus spending.

There’s one problem, though: There is no 15th congressional district in Arizona; the state has only eight districts.

And ABC News has found many more entries for projects like this in places that are incorrectly identified.

Wow! what is up with ABC, they are openly questioning and not outing the President? Maybe they decided they didn’t like being treated like children? Welcome to the club, it’s why we don’t like Obama and his Marxism.

Don’t expect much to come of this, the lap-dog media will write it off as Bush’s fault, antiquated technology (again Bush’s fault), or overloaded staff (again Bush’s fault). We all know it’s just a bunch of idiots who run the White House, trotting out their usual lies. If they are not lying, then how can we expect them to run Health Care when they are so “overworked” already? of so incompetent?

“We report what the recipients submit to us,” said Ed Pound, Communications Director for the Board.

Pound told ABC News the board receives declarations from the recipients – state governments, federal agencies and universities – of stimulus money about what program is being funded.

“Some recipients clearly don’t know what congressional district they live in, so they appear to be just throwing in any number. We expected all along that recipients would make mistakes on their congressional districts, on jobs numbers, on award amounts, and so on. Human beings make mistakes,” Pound said.

Well isn’t that typical, it’s OUR fault because we are so stupid. Well if you expected this, then why were you not prepared for it? It’s a simple thing to check the district number. We have these cool things called computers where you can write programs and check for that. It’s called Defensive coding.

It’s clear they just wanted to get the numbers out because they think we are so stupid as to not notice they are lying their assess off. Disgusting.
