Yesterday, I was watching a Congressman on one of the talk shows defending the Obama administration’s profligate spending of nearly a trillion dollars on the “stimulus.”\u00a0\u00a0 The commentator was pooh-poohing the figures that the representative was giving by showing that many of the claimed jobs were bogus.\u00a0 The Congressman, in a huff and with an air of intellectual superiority, came forth with the administration’s vaunted talking point claim … “we have created a million jobs.”\u00a0 You may believe that, but I don’t, however, I have a different point to make.<\/p>\n
