"The AP review found some counts were more than 10 times as high as
the actual number of jobs.."

Whoopsy.

John, perhaps you don't know this, but his name is Obama.

And...I forgot to say it, but you are correct. *He* is the one
screwing the pooch, so to speak.

One town in Connecticut reported 100 jobs saved in the Police Force.
Turns out that town only employs 23 Police Officers.. They say some
towns are mistakenly putting the decimal point in the wrong place, some
are counting hours worked (what??) instead of jobs saved. Seems funny
almost all of the hundreds and maybe thousands of mis-reported "jobs
saved" are to the plus side, not the minus side. It is looking more and
more like about 75-90% exaggeration on the part of those reporting, or
counting for the Administration.. Sorry Loogie, no excuse for this, it
ain't an accident...
