I just finished watching (Tuesday night) the local news on News 14 Carolina … and heard the following story which simply blows my mind.

Here is today’s tidbit of information that the Obama half of the nation will never hear about on CNN or MSNBC:

Obama promised transparency and that the stimulus money (American Recovery and Investment Act) would be tracked and you would be able to check it all out on line.

Here goes:

(1) North Carolina was awarded $4,278,470,000 in stimulus funds (that’s over four billion dollars)

(2) Jobs created or saved…28,073 (BUT … In places that do not exist.) It seems that this stimulus money was spread out over all of our 19 Congressional districts.

But we do not have 19 districts. We only have 13 districts in North Carolina. (There are only 435 districts in the entire United States and they can’t even get that right.)

It is kinda like the 57 US states that Obama visited during his campaign in 2008. (There ARE 57 islamic states.)

The 37th district (which does not exist) was awarded $3,925,318.00

The 86th district (which does not exist) was awarded $1,255,629.00

District 00 (which is an unusual number but also does not exist) was awarded over $90,000.00

Well, you get the idea.

Also, according to the administration’s web site, (which by the way cost $18,000,000.00 to create), 54 jobs were created or saved in districts which do not exist, and we are expected to believe that these same people can run the nation’s socialized medicine programs, General Motors and the entire banking industry. I cannot wait for Cap and Trade. While the wheels of “Hope and Change” continue to grind you up … remember … “Yes We Can.”

By the way, the right jack has created 2-3 jobs in 2009 with no Big Government subsidy or bailout of any kind. Democrats seem to not have a clue how to create jobs. See previous post.
