Stimulus plan not working politically either | Washington Examiner

Stimulus plan not working politically either Washington Examiner

When President Obama signed his stimulus into law in February, Democrats issued grave warnings of the price Republicans would pay for their opposition to the bill.

“Americans will hold House Republicans accountable for ‘just saying no’ to the largest tax cut in American history and saving and creating three to four million jobs,” said Rep. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., who also serves as head of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.

There are still about 140 million jobs still left in the country, so taken in the broadest possible sense, Democrats have exceeded their promise on the “save” end of the equation. It’s hard in the face of recent unemployment numbers, though, to suggest that the "create" part is doing so well

I think I have been "stimulated" quite enough, thank you. I want my money back.
